Introduction

Great for making Chicken Shish (Shish = skewered) Kebab or just cook without the skewers on an indoor grill.

For plain Chicken Shish Kebab, it goes great just with a lemon/oil salad in a Whole wheat Pita, or can be served with Rice Pilav or Bulgur Pilav. Mediterranean meals are always served with salad or a serving of vegetables with Garlic Yogurt (cacik/jajik).

*The nutritional info shows 5.3 g of fat per serving, but I don't know if this amount of fat is "cut" by the method of preparation - I prepared mine in an indoor grill (like a Foreman grill) - and there was 3/4 c juice/fat which drained from it.
