Perfect! Now we can send all the Lebanese back home.

[FamiliarFace]

Interesting. I might have to try to make this. My husband is 1/4 Lebanese.

[FamiliarFace]

Some Lebanese have been here since the early 1900’s. They are fully Americanized now.

[Rebelbase]

If Lebanese chicken isn't your thing there is always Palistenian chicken.
