There’s no ingredient quite like garlic for adding a deep and savory level of flavor to any dish.

It’s incredibly versatile, and can enhance anything from pizza to pasta to a delicious stir fry in an instant. But there’s so much more garlic can do, and on National Garlic Day, restaurants nationwide are taking the opportunity to explore just how delicious and versatile this ingredient truly is.

Ward Off Vampires With These 8 Dishes, Perfect For National Garlic Day 1

At Stephano’s Greek & Mediterranean Grill located in Las Vegas and Henderson, Nevada, chicken kebab wrapped and pressed in pita bread with tomatoes and garlic sauce.

“The Garlic Chicken Press layers tender, well-seasoned chicken kebab with fresh tomatoes, then wraps and presses it in warm pita to create added texture and depth. The garlic sauce is what brings it all together. It’s a Lebanese classic we make in-house daily that’s bold, light and full of flavor, adding richness without overpowering the dish. Many guests opt to add tangy sumac onions, which introduce a bright, slightly citrusy contrast that elevates the entire bite, creating something that feels both comforting and distinctly memorable,” said Nick Kossayan, Co-owner of Stephano’s Greek & Mediterranean Grill.
