1. Lebanese Chicken Kebabs

Cut chicken into cubes and toss with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and Lebanese Spice Blend.

Let marinate for at least 30 minutes, then thread onto skewers with peppers, onions, or tomatoes.

Grill, bake, or air fry until cooked through.

Serve with rice, pita bread, cucumber salad, or yogurt sauce.

2. Beef Kafta Skillet

Mix ground beef with Lebanese Spice Blend, finely minced onion, garlic, parsley, and salt.

Shape into small patties, meatballs, or logs, then cook in a skillet until browned and cooked through.

Serve with rice, flatbread, hummus, cucumbers, tomatoes, or a creamy yogurt sauce.

3. Lamb Meatballs

Lebanese Spice Blend is wonderful with lamb.

Mix ground lamb with bread crumbs, egg, onion, garlic, parsley, and Lebanese Spice Blend. Shape into meatballs and bake or pan-cook.

Serve with rice pilaf, roasted vegetables, pita, hummus, or yogurt sauce.

4. Roasted Vegetables

Toss zucchini, peppers, onions, carrots, cauliflower, eggplant, or potatoes with olive oil and Lebanese Spice Blend.

Roast at 400°F until tender and lightly browned.

Serve as a side dish, over rice, in wraps, or with grilled chicken or beef.

5. Lebanese Rice Pilaf

Add Lebanese Spice Blend to rice while it cooks with broth, butter, or olive oil.

For extra flavor, stir in toasted almonds, pine nuts, chickpeas, raisins, onions, or fresh parsley.

Cut potatoes into wedges or cubes and toss with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and Lebanese Spice Blend.

Mix plain yogurt with lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, and Lebanese Spice Blend.

The yogurt helps coat the food and gives the seasoning a rich, tangy flavor.

8. Chickpea Bowl

Warm chickpeas in a skillet with olive oil and Lebanese Spice Blend, or roast them until lightly crisp.

Serve with rice, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, olives, lettuce, feta, hummus, or yogurt sauce.

Brush flatbread, pita, or naan with olive oil.

Top with cooked Lebanese-spiced beef, lamb, chicken, or chickpeas.
