Chicken Beykoz kebab with sauce is a Turkish dish associated with Beykoz, in Istanbul. It combines pieces of chicken and eggplant in a tomato-based sauce, making it closer to a saucy home-style kebab than a grilled skewer.
The chicken turns tender, the eggplant softens into the sauce, and the tomato brings a gentle savoury tang. In Turkey it is commonly served hot as a main meal, with rice or bread and often a salad or yoghurt on the side. It provides protein and B vitamins, while the eggplant contributes some fibre. For a lighter plate, use a modest amount of oil in the sauce and serve it with salad rather than extra bread.
