Za’atar Spiced Chicken, a Middle Eastern dish, potatoes, and sweet potatoes served with a side of corn and sautéed broccolini.

What does zaatar taste like?

The taste of a za’atar mixture can be tangy, herbal, nutty, or toasty. Za’atar is both a family of herbs and an herb, Thymbra spicata, with a slight minty tendency, in the marjoram/oregano family. Some are salty flavored and quite rare, and some are lemony.

  1. Today was the first time I ever came across your blog – I love zaatar, I love chicken. I’ve bookmarked your website to make this recipe in the next few days. I’m not that much of a cook, but this looks easy enough to make! Thanks for the cuisine inspiration 😀
