About stigghiola

Italian meat dish originating from Sicily

The stigghiola, also known as stigghiuola, is a Sicilian food typical of the streets of the city of Palermo. It consists of guts which are washed in water and salt, seasoned with parsley and often with onion and other pot herbs, then stuck on a skewer or rolled around a leek, and finally cooked directly on the grill. The dish is generally prepared and sold as a street food. In Ragusa, the dish is baked in a casserole and is known as turciniuna.
