You may seek vegetarian options or meat-based dishes, Middle Eastern cuisine has something for everyone.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The popularity of our restaurant has proved that it&#8217;s a great cuisine to explore for quick and easy weeknight dinners as well. As most of us lead very hectic lives, in this article, we have identified 10 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/damasquinola.com\/recipes\/top-10-spicy-middle-eastern-chicken-dishes-to-spice-up-your-menu\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Middle Eastern dinner ideas<\/a><\/strong> that are quick, easy, and full of flavor.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-shakshuka\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shakshuka\"><\/span>Shakshuka\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Shakshuka tops our list. It is a classic Middle Eastern dish that&#8217;s perfect for any time of day. But it&#8217;s particularly great for dinner. We find it to be more of a tomato-based sauce with eggs poached directly in the sauce.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make it as spicy or mild as you like and add your favorite vegetables. Being a one-pan wonder, it&#8217;s perfect for a busy weeknight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-falafel-bowls\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Falafel_Bowls\"><\/span>Falafel Bowls\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An amazing way to get in some protein and veggies in a delicious and filling way is having falafel bowls. You can make your falafels or use store-bought, and add your favorite vegetables and grains.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Top with some hummus, tahini, and a drizzle of lemon juice for a perfect <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Falafel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Middle Eastern meal<\/a><\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fattoush-salad\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fattoush_Salad\"><\/span>Fattoush Salad\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Fattoush salad is a fresh and vibrant salad that&#8217;s perfect for a light dinner or as a side dish. It&#8217;s made with chopped vegetables like tomatoes, cucumbers, and radishes, and topped with crispy pita chips and a tangy dressing.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/damasquinola.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Middle Eastern food<\/a><\/strong> is a great way to use up any leftover vegetables in your fridge.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-mujadara\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Mujadara\"><\/span>Mujadara\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A traditional Middle Eastern dish prepared with lentils, rice, and caramelized onions is Mujadara. It&#8217;s a simple yet flavorful dish that&#8217;s perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can serve it as a side dish or add some roasted vegetables for a complete meal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chicken-shawarma-wraps\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chicken_Shawarma_Wraps\"><\/span>Chicken Shawarma Wraps\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you wish to enjoy a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/damasquinola.com\/contact\/\">Middle Eastern classic<\/a><\/strong> in an easy-to-eat way, then chicken shawarma wraps are the right option for you. You can marinate some chicken thighs in spices like cumin, coriander, and paprika, and then grill or roast them until cooked through.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We stuff them into a wrap with some hummus, vegetables, and a drizzle of tahini for a delicious and filling meal for our guests.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lamb-kofta-skewers\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lamb_Kofta_Skewers\"><\/span>Lamb Kofta Skewers\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A great way to add some variety to your weeknight meals is to opt for lamb kofta skewers. Mix some ground lamb with spices like cumin, coriander, and garlic, and form them into small balls.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thread them onto skewers and grill or roast until cooked through. Serve with some pita bread and tzatziki for a delicious and easy meal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-baba-ghanoush\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Baba_Ghanoush\"><\/span>Baba Ghanoush\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A <strong>classic Middle Eastern dip<\/strong> is Baba ghanoush. It is cooked with roasted eggplant, tahini, and garlic. We find it to be a great way to include some vegetables and healthy fats, and it&#8217;s also a great dip for pita bread or vegetables.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may serve it as a side dish or as part of a mezze platter for a delicious and easy meal.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-stuffed-grape-leaves\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Stuffed_Grape_Leaves\"><\/span>Stuffed Grape Leaves\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever someone\u2019s taste buds crave <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/damasquinola.com\/gallery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mediterranean Food in Glendora<\/a><\/strong>, they prefer our stuffed grape leaves, also known as Dolmas. They are a great way to enjoy some Mediterranean flavors, usually filled with rice, herbs, and sometimes ground meat, and then rolled up and cooked until tender.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We find this to be an amazing side dish or snack, and the best part is that they can be served as part of a larger meal too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-beef-kebabs\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Beef_Kebabs\"><\/span>Beef Kebabs\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We serve beef kebabs as a <strong>classic Middle Eastern dish<\/strong> as it\u2019s perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. Marinate some beef in spices like cumin, coriander, and paprika, and then skewer them with some vegetables like onions, peppers, and tomatoes.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may grill or roast until cooked through, and serve with the final Middle Eastern dinner.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lentil-soup\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lentil_Soup\"><\/span>Lentil Soup\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lentil soup is a comforting and hearty dish that&#8217;s perfect for cooler evenings. Middle Eastern lentil soup is made with lentils, onions, garlic, and spices like cumin and coriander. It&#8217;s a great way to get in some protein and fiber, and it&#8217;s also a great option for vegetarians and vegans.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s better to serve it with some crusty bread for a complete meal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These above-mentioned 10 Middle Eastern dinner ideas are not only quick, easy, and full of flavor, they&#8217;re great for meal prep as well.
