What is Chicken-stuffed eggplant filling?
Chicken-stuffed eggplant filling is the savoury mixture used to make a chicken version of karniyarik, a Turkish dish of split eggplants filled and baked. The filling is commonly cooked with chicken, onion, tomato and pepper, though household recipes vary. It is served nestled in or over the softened eggplant, rather than as a standalone stuffing.
Expect tender chicken with a soft, juicy vegetable base and a mild, savoury flavour. In Turkey it is often served as a main meal with rice and yoghurt; elsewhere, it also pairs well with flatbread or a simple salad. It provides 10.5 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter preparation, roast or grill the eggplant instead of frying it.
