Chicken Al faham

Chicken Al Faham / Arabian grilled chicken, is a popular Middle Eastern dish with smoky, flavorful meat. I marinate the chicken in cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric, garlic, and lemon juice to create a rich, tangy flavor. I pair it with rice, pita bread, or salad. Garlic sauce, tahini, or a squeeze of lemon boosts the zest.
