Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Chicken Hünkar Beğendi

  • Metabolic Effect: Chicken Hünkar Beğendi provides a feeling of fullness thanks to the protein and fiber it contains, and helps to keep blood sugar balanced. However, it is important to pay attention to the amount of fat it contains, and portion control is important, especially for those who want to control their weight.
  • Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming Hünkar Beğendi alone, you can get a more balanced meal by adding a salad with plenty of greens. In this way, you increase your vitamin and mineral intake and stay full longer.
  • Things to Consider: Hünkar Beğendi usually contains high amounts of butter and flour, so it is a healthier option to prefer lighter versions or make it yourself at home. One serving of Hünkar Beğendi is roughly equivalent to a handful of chicken and a bowl of beğendi.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from this dish, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 60 minutes or run at a brisk pace for 30 minutes. Alternatively, cycling for 40 minutes will give similar results.
