About Lebanese shawarma
Lebanese Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern dish featuring thinly sliced, seasoned meat—typically chicken, beef, or lamb—cooked on a rotating vertical spit. The meat is marinated in a blend of garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and warm spices like cumin, paprika, and turmeric, giving it a distinctive, aromatic flavor. It’s commonly served in pita bread with a variety of fresh toppings, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, pickles, and parsley, along with creamy tahini or garlic sauce. Originating from Lebanon, it reflects the rich traditions of Levantine cuisine. Nutritionally, Lebanese Shawarma is a good source of protein and can include healthy fats from olive oil and tahini, as well as vitamins from fresh vegetables. However, it may be high in sodium and saturated fats depending on preparation, and the calorie count can increase with added sauces or fried sides like French fries. Making mindful choices can optimize its health benefits.
