Kebab

Small chunks of meat or fish that have been seasoned and/or marinated, put on a skewer or into a grilling basket and then grilled or broiled. Often, the meat is marinated prior to cooking and vegetables, such as onions, peppers, tomatoes, and mushrooms, are commonly added with the meat to provide not only additional items for the serving but also to allow some of the flavors to blend together. Although the typical Kebab includes meat chunks, it can also be made with other forms of firmed meats, such as ground meat or sausages in casings. A Kebab may also be referred to as a kabob, kebob or shish kebab.
