Grilled Chicken Shatta

The smokey-sweet heat of the shatta sauce is the perfect partner for my grilled chicken


Shatta sauce, hailing from the Middle East and North Africa, is a fiery condiment that packs a punch of flavor. Think of it as a spicy cousin to harissa, but with more variety and regional twists. Its base usually starts with chilies (jalapenos or hotter varieties), roasted peppers, tomatoes, garlic, and spices like cumin, coriander, and smoked paprika. Each region adds its own twist, with some incorporating lemon juice, herbs, or even fermented ingredients like black garlic for deeper umami. This culinary chameleon can be spicy, smoky, tangy, or all of the above, adding excitement to grilled meats, stews, dips, and even breakfast eggs. So, next time you crave a taste of the Middle East or just want to turn up the heat, grab some shatta sauce and let the flavor adventure begin!



Get ready to ignite your taste buds with this sizzling summer sensation: Grilled Chicken Shatta. Imagine tender, smoky chicken glazed in a fiery-sweet shatta sauce (think Middle Eastern hot sauce with personality!), bursting with garlic, chilies, and vibrant spices. Each bite is a dance on the edge of heat, leaving you begging for more. So ditch the takeout apps and unleash your inner grill master!
