Şiş kebap

Shish kebab (Turkish: şiş kebap) is the Turkish cuisine version of skewered and grilled meat. The term shish kebab has a history of over one hundred years in English. Probably the best known Turkish dish outside Turkey, it is generally made of lamb (kuzu şiş) but there are also versions with beef or veal (dana şiş), swordfish (kılıç şiş) and chicken meat (tavuk şiş or şiş tavuk). A traditional Turkish dish, it may be considered a kebab variant, although it is more similar to shashlik of the Caucasus region. (Shashlyk is the Russian word for şiş kebap.) In Turkey, şiş kebap and the vegetables served with it are grilled separately, normally not on the same skewer.
