Grilled skewers are a versatile dish found in many cuisines worldwide, including Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, Asian, and Latin American. These skewers typically feature a mix of marinated proteins like chicken, beef, lamb, seafood, or plant-based alternatives, paired with vibrant vegetables such as bell peppers, zucchini, onions, and cherry tomatoes. The ingredients are threaded onto skewers and cooked over an open flame or grill, imparting a smoky flavor. Grilled skewers are a nutritious choice, often low in fat and rich in protein, vitamins, and fiber, depending on the ingredients used. Grilling minimizes the use of added fats, making them a lighter alternative to fried dishes. However, some marinades can be high in sodium or sugar, so opting for homemade versions with fresh herbs and spices ensures a healthier preparation. With their customizable nature, skewers can cater to a variety of dietary preferences and are a delicious, nutrient-packed option for any meal.
