Joojeh Kabob is one of the most beloved grilled dishes in Persian cuisine, and at Tehran Market & Cafe in Winnipeg, we prepare it with authentic care and premium ingredients. This classic dish features tender pieces of chicken marinated in a fragrant blend of saffron, fresh lemon juice, and grated onion, then threaded onto skewers and grilled over open flame until golden and slightly charred.
The saffron marinade gives the chicken its signature golden hue and an incomparable floral aroma, while the lemon juice tenderizes the meat and adds a bright, citrusy contrast. Served with saffron basmati rice and grilled tomato, Joojeh Kabob is a lighter, more aromatic take on Persian grilling that delights both newcomers and those who grew up with this dish. Available for dine-in, takeout, and delivery across Winnipeg.
