About Chicken tawouk

Chicken Tawouk is a classic Middle Eastern dish that features marinated, grilled chicken skewers, popular in Lebanese and Turkish cuisines. The marinade typically includes yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, tomato paste, and a mix of warm spices such as paprika and cumin, creating tender, flavorful results. Served with pita bread, rice, or fresh vegetables, Chicken Tawouk is a versatile meal rich in protein and essential nutrients from the chicken. The use of yogurt and olive oil adds probiotics and healthy fats, while the spices provide antioxidants. However, nutritional aspects can vary: pairing it with creamy sauces or fried sides may increase calorie and fat content. For a lighter option, it can be served with a side of fresh salads or whole grains. Chicken Tawouk is a vibrant, wholesome way to enjoy grilled chicken while exploring the rich culinary tradition of the Middle East.
