Probably even the most experienced accountant will find it difficult to count how much meat will be eaten these days. And of course, it is not difficult to guess that the majority of it will be fried on the grill, in the form of all your favorite kebabs and.

Prepare, from mutton, from beef. But the most popular and beloved of all, of course, is he made from pork. One of the delicious recipes you can find. She quickly marinated, quickly fried, she is tasty, juicy. It was for her taste and ease of preparation that she fell in love with millions of people.

Cooking kebabs is not just a culinary process, it is a kind of action! Already only one preparation for the process adjusts to a certain way. You need to buy everything you need, then decide what marinade you will use. Then fry! Everywhere we need certain skills.

So how do you make a tasty, juicy, flavorful pork dish? After all, it is no secret that someone has a ready-made dish juicy, and someone has a dry one; for someone, it always turns out to be cooked and tough, and for someone, it is not cooked inside at all.

In order for the roasted meat to be tasty, juicy and roasted, it is necessary to choose the desired part of the desired quality, soak it in a properly prepared composition, and fry it on the grill correctly.

Let's first consider the various options.

Marinating the flesh correctly is an important step in preparing a delicious dish. The way you choose to do this primarily determines the taste of the finished product. Therefore, this stage is one of the most important. Even if you buy a great piece of pulp, but you treat it incorrectly, it may turn out not at all the taste that you expect to receive from it.

Cooking options exist very much. And having properly prepared them, you can make the finished product juicy, practically from each. The main thing is to keep proportions and time.


Sometimes in recipes it is found that vinegar is added to the ingredients. I do not add it. I believe that when it is added, the taste of the main product is lost. It turns out tough and not juicy.

Maybe I’m wrong, and maybe I just don’t know how to make variations using vinegar, but I never use it. What for? Then, when there is a large number of natural products, thanks to which the meat is very juicy and certainly delicious.

In addition, the pork itself is quite tender, not at all tough, and vinegar is mainly used for softening. And in this case to use it absolutely to anything.

But let's consider other ways. In fact, they are much more, here are the most popular and in demand.

  On kefir

In kefir, too, there is acid, and if you need to quickly make the pulp soft, then kefir will be just the way.

But you should know that keeping it in kefir too long is not necessary either. Otherwise, the result will be the same as if we keep the meat in vinegar - it will lose its taste and juiciness.

Keeping the kefir should be no more than 3.5-4 hours. It will be quite enough for reception of gentle taste.


We will need:

  • pork neck - 2 kg
  • onions - 1 kg
  • kefir -05-0.7 ml.
  • salt, black pepper to taste
  • ginger - 1 tablespoon
  • spices - I use mixes, which includes crushed coriander, zira, paprika, nutmeg
  • dried herbs
  • red pepper

Cooking:

  1. Cut the neck into pieces of 5x5 cm. It’s better not to cut the pieces, because in this case the pork will turn out to be dry. You also do not need to cut more, there is a risk that inside it will not have time to fry. Put everything in a large bowl.
  2. Onions cut into very thin half rings. Mash it so that the onions start up the juice and add to the bowl.
  3. Stir everything together, lightly pressing on the onions, so that the juice is absorbed into the pulp.
  4. Add spices, herbs, pepper, kefir. Stir once more, lightly pressing down on the contents so that the marinade quickly feeds each piece.
  5. Leave in a cool place to infuse. It is not advisable to put in the fridge. Periodically can be mixed.

Prepared slices are best salted 30-40 minutes before the moment when you start to fry kebabs. Earlier salt is not recommended. Salt draws juice from the pulp. And if you salt it before, the pulp will never get juicy.

This is one of the main secrets of making a juicy product. Do not ignore it, and then you will always get juicy.

The advantages of this method are that the water has a neutral taste. And the taste of the product is revealed in this case most fully. And the second plus - the pulp softens with the help of mineral water, and becomes very soft, juicy and fragrant. And its fibers under the influence of mineral water become more elastic and spices are better impregnated in them. And the finished product becomes more fragrant and remains tender at the same time.

Here are just a few ways in which the finished dish will turn out tasty and juicy. However, there are still options for keeping the pulp in red and white wine (for lovers), in pomegranate and tomato juice. There are also recipes based on sour cream, and with the addition of balsamic vinegar. However, like regular vinegar. And lovers of beer and a specific taste, keep the pulp in the beer.

When the cut pieces are mixed with all the ingredients, it must be tightly closed, and put under pressure, crushing something heavy.

If you use fast methods for 3-4 hours, then it is better to maintain them in a cool place. And if more time is needed, it is better to keep it in the fridge.

But that's not all, so that the kebab turned out well, it should also be properly roasted.

  How to fry kebabs

1. Before frying the sliced ​​pieces, they must be properly strung on skewers. String them need not too tight. Between them should be a little space for better cooking from all sides.

2. They need to be strung smoothly, so that they are evenly on the skewer, and that nothing hangs in separate pieces.

3. If onions were used for the marinade, then it should be carefully removed from each piece. If this is not done, then the burnt onions will give a bitter taste to the dish and deprive it of the desired flavor.

4. If you have not used any oil, then before frying, you can coat each sliced ​​piece of vegetable oil. This is necessary so that the flesh is well roasted inside and not burned outside.

5. Coal can be bought in the store already ready, although there are many opponents of this. And opponents, as a rule, make the embers themselves. They take firewood of hardwood trees - birch, aspen, apple ..., burn them, and when there are coals already frying on them. You should not only fry the flesh using coniferous firewood, it can spoil its natural smell and taste.

6. During frying on the grill it is necessary to constantly turn the skewers so that the pieces are roasted evenly. Care should be taken that the coals smolder well. If the heat is weak, the flesh will dry up, and if the flames constantly burst out, it will start to burn. To do this, keep a bottle of water ready. And as soon as the flame breaks out, it should be immediately extinguished from the bottle with water.

7. During the whole frying, you should be near the barbecue to monitor the entire process.


8. When the kebab is browned, its readiness can be checked by making an incision on the brightest part. If blood does not flow from it, but inside it is a pleasant pink color, then the dish is ready.

9. Remove it from the skewers on a large dish and cover with a lid for 5 minutes so that it is rested. Rested, it will be even juicier and tastier.

10. Serve the finished dish with grilled vegetables, fresh vegetables, greens and onion seasoned in vinegar.

The following topic in fact would need to be put in the first place. But since the article was about marinades, they were the first to go. Therefore, although with a delay, we will dwell on this important topic in more detail.

  How to choose a pork for kebab

On what kind of meat you chose to cook, depends on what kind of kebab you get. You can make a great marinade, well roast the flesh. But if it is not bought, it will be difficult to cook the perfect dish.

And it is best to use the neck or loin.

1. It is best to keep it fresh. From such a finished product turns out the most delicious. In extreme cases, you can use and frozen, but only under one condition. If you bought it fresh, they themselves froze, and thawed only once. Defrosted just for this case, that is, for cooking.

2. It should be thawed at room temperature, in a natural way. Without the use of hot water or a microwave.

3. Also, you should not buy a finished product in the store. After all, we do not know what is sliced. And that means the result can be unpredictable.

4. Pay attention to the appearance when you buy it. It should be a pale pink color, with thin fatty streaks. If it is red, then it may be old and it is best to give it up. The finished dish of it will be tough, as if it was not previously cooked and fried.

5. Take too fatty pieces to anything. During frying, excess fat will drip onto the coals, burn on them, and this will give the finished dish an odor that is not needed.

6. Fresh product should not have extraneous odors, only fresh, almost neutral smell.

7. When pressing on it should not be released blood. And the trail from pressing should disappear almost immediately. If the mark remains for a long time, it means that the flesh has been thawed and frozen again.

8. When looking at the exterior, look at the consistency, it should not be dull, but glossy. It also should not stick to hands.

Now go to the store, always choose the right piece. And then any dish you get tasty.

  The rules of cooking classic kebabs

For cooking it is better to take young and juicy meat. To get good results. The following rules should be followed:

  • Avoid cooking from frozen meat. Because frozen meat contains significantly less nutrients that are contained in fresh. Whatever they say, no matter how marinated, the fibers from frozen meat will be tough.
  • Avoid cooking from fresh meat, from a freshly slaughtered animal. Blood should flow from the carcass, the meat should "rest" for several hours, lie down. In the old days, it was generally considered a ban to cook dishes immediately from the wounded game - 2 to 3 days should pass.
  • Stringy meat is not suitable.

Buy better ready charcoal and use it. As a rule, coal sold in bags is made from birch chocks.

The height of the brazier, for frying meat, must be such that the meat is 10-15 cm above the coal, or even lower. It is more convenient to make a brazier with grate bars (small) and a blower, in order to create cravings depending on wind and weather.

In the absence of mangal hearth, for frying kebabs can be folded from improvised non-combustible material: stones or bricks.

How delicious marinate pork shish kebab to make the meat juicy and soft

Let's go straight to the point, offer one of the best ways to pickle pork, which I use. And those who want more recipes, and a step-by-step cooking process, then read the whole article.

So. My recipe to make the meat juicy and soft looks like this:

Ingredients:

  • Pork neck (neck) - 2 kg.
  • Onions - 10 heads (about the same as meat)
  • Green parsley and dill (a bunch to fit in your hand)
  • Red tomatoes (preferably in season, otherwise not ripe tomatoes will not give the desired flavor to the marinade) - 3-5 tomatoes
  • Salt pepper

That's all. A simple recipe!

You need to chop the meat, then the onions as you like - in rings or cubes. Tomatoes cut into cubes, and parsley with dill. Do not overdo it with parsley, otherwise it is very sugary! And so, parsley is one of the secret ingredients.

Move everything (meat, tomatoes, parsley, dill).

Bonus! Tasty pickled onions in a hurry

A bonus to the recipe, I decided to write my own recipe for pickling onions. Perfect for a snack.

Ingredients:

  • Onions in small rings - 1 pc
  • Vinegar (table 9% or vinegar essence 70% - 2 tsp.) - 4 tbsp. l
  • Sugar - 2 teaspoons
  • Salt (without slides) - 0.5 tsp
  • Water (boiled cooled) - 1 stack (250 ml.).
  • Dill (to taste)

Easy way:

I add vinegar to the water so that the tongue has a taste of vinegar in the water. Not very cloying. And further, when the water under the vinegar is made, I add all the other ingredients: sugar, salt and dill. At the end I cut onions into small rings so that I could marinate quickly in 10-15 minutes. And put in the fridge. Recommend!

The second method of pickling onions

Serve with fresh tortilla.


The cooking process consists of three stages:

- Meat selection and marinating

- preparation of a brazier (cultivation of coals)

- roasting meat

Marinade can be different, like from vinegar (you can add red wines or sour juices), salt and spices ... So other, no less refined, and recipes. We will sort them a little.

The main thing for us is that the meat turns out to be soft, and when we eat it - it did not just melt in the mouth, but transfer all the juice to the taste buds, and every chewing with the “jaw” - made the facial expression satisfied, stunning soft and juicy meat.

Step 1. Choose meat


From the selected meat, depends on how the kebab will be edible, tasty and non-greasy.

As mentioned earlier, it is best to take chilled, not frozen. Cooled pork is more elastic, and frozen pork is loose and gives off meat juice.

Young pork gives a more delicate flavor and it is much softer. The age can be determined by the color of the meat, the darker it is, the older it is. In addition, you can check the freshness of the meat by pressing on it with your finger. If the dent leaks quickly enough, the product is fresh. You can take!

Also, choose meat with small streaks of fat, which should be light yellow and not hanging in pieces. If the fat is dark yellow, then the animal was old.

In addition, the meat is preferable to take a whole piece and its parts such as brisket, shoulder, neck or ham - you need to understand what you take. Since, if you take the back ham, then how not to try, but do not wait for juiciness. Perhaps it will make it soft. But the taste does not compare, in comparison with the front part - namely, the neck, or the front ham near the neck.

What is the difference between these pieces of meat from each other?


It is the neck, most often used in kebabs. If you use a moderately fatty piece, then the kebab will be soft and tender.

The leg is much drier than the neck, and the scapula is stiff. Therefore, using these pieces for kebabs, they must be well marinated. And believe me, you need to try!

Brisket is almost the fattest part of the pig. This must be taken into account by those who do not like too fat meat.


Pork is good because of its many parts you can cook a good and tasty barbecue. The only difference is how much time to marinate each part of the pork carcass. But if you are not a great marinating professional, then choose a neck.

Step 2. Prepare the pieces. What should be the pieces of meat that the kebab did not get dry?

Meat is selected. Now you need to cut it right. Many may say: " -What is difficult, take it and cut it". However, a lot depends on correctly cut pieces. For example, the degree of their impregnation with marinade, the fit on skewers, and roasting.


Cutting meat is better with medium slices. These can be identical squares, 3-5 cm wide, or cubes 4x4x4 centimeters. If you chop the meat very finely, it will be dry, and if it is large, it may not fry in the middle. In general, on one medium-sized skewer, ideally six pieces should fit.

The shape of the meat should be cone-shaped, but also square, too. With this form it is convenient to stick meat on a skewer, piercing it from corner to corner diagonally.

Cut into pieces, it is necessary across the fibers. If cut along the fibers, it will shrink and chew badly during frying. Accordingly, during the cutting of meat, it is necessary to clean it from tendons and fat. In order to see how the fibers go, you need to freeze the meat, and then carefully examine it. The fibers will look like white strings. Cut them across. However, they can be seen on the thawed meat. After all, the white streaks of them can be considered immediately. Especially if the neck is fat.
Here, even look at the image (photo below), there is an average piece of meat in the pan, on which the fibers are clearly visible.

As for the knife, in order for meat to be cut easily, it must be very sharp. I pre-sharpen the knife on the bar. I try to sharpen every time it comes to cutting meat.

Try to immediately choose the perfect piece of meat for barbecue in the market.

Better, once again go and see - who sells what. And even better - to take in one place on the market, always from one saleswoman, that the source was verified, and you were confident in the product.

Here, about such pieces should you get:


Step 3. Prepare the necessary ingredients

Meat prepared, sliced ​​as needed. The next step is to cook the marinade. The fun begins.

The taste of the finished dish depends on the marinade.


Also, a lot depends on the choice of dishes. Moreover, soaking the meat in brine for a long time. The best dishes for the marinade are glass, clay or enamelled, but it is better not to use an aluminum or iron pan. Otherwise, it may oxidize, and its taste will deteriorate.

Wood, especially untreated, produces tannins, which can also change the taste of kebab.

As for the fat content of the marinade, when preparing it for pork, it is better not to use mayonnaise and vegetable oil. Because, pork, in itself fat. And if the marinade is also bold, the kebab can be heavy on the stomach.

Moreover, many use it for alcohol. And this loads not only the stomach, but also the liver. It is important, on the contrary, that the meat neutralizes alcohol and is easy to digest.

Onions in large quantities will not spoil the meat. Do not be afraid with this moment.


Top 6 delicious marinades to make the meat soft and juicy

On the Internet, you can find hundreds of a wide variety of marinade recipes. It is only necessary to decide what you like and take it for cooking.

It is believed that it is best to marinate meat in onion juice. To do this, the onion is cut or grated, and you can soak the meat pieces in it. As a result, the kebab will be very tender and juicy. This method begins more classic, in its own juice.

In this article, we consider several such recipes, from the most common, to the original in its composition.

Below are the recipes for the most fastidious readers and gourmets:

Skewers with vinegar. What are the advantages and disadvantages of vinegar marinade

Marinating in vinegar is considered classic. However, some lovers of kebabs are not advised to use vinegar, because it tightens the fibers and the meat from it becomes dry.

But if you need vinegar, then here is the recipe for a classic vinegar marinade. Maintain meat in it must be at least 12 hours.

At 1.5 kg of meat, we need 4 tablespoons of 9% table vinegar, 150 g of water, a teaspoon of sugar, 3 onions, add spices to taste.

  • Dilute vinegar with water in a ratio of 2: 1, add sugar.
  • Cut the onion into rings, lay the meat with them and pour in diluted vinegar.
  • You can also grate the onion and grate in the marinade.
  • To taste add spices.

Everything is mixed and left for 12 hours.


If the meat is hard enough, then the vinegar will help to fix it, softening it. However, at the same time, it dries it, therefore, soft meat is not recommended to pickle in vinegar.

How to Marinate Pork Skewers in Mayonnaise with Onions

Another popular ingredient in marinade is mayonnaise. In general, mayonnaise is so popular that it is difficult to imagine a dish, wherever it is used. Despite the fact that the above was said for mayonnaise - many use it, it is worth mentioning the method of pickling in mayonnaise, as one of the simple and fast.

Per kilogram of pork, we need 250 ml of mayonnaise, 3-4 onions, salt and spices to taste.

We start with the fact that the meat pieces salt, pepper and insist 10-15 minutes. After that add mayonnaise and mix.

Mayonnaise should not be much, so that the meat does not swim in it, and evenly cover the pieces.

If you need spiciness, then before pouring mayonnaise into the meat, it is mixed with mustard.

Please note that mustard is also used if you want to speed up the process of pickling, and make the meat soft.

For example the case when they took instead of the neck, ham. And to soften it, you can pre-grease with mustard, and then after 1-2 hours - make a marinade of mayonnaise with onions.

I use this method when I buy fresh pork neck, and after 2 hours guests come. To speed up the process of marinating - I smear with mustard, and then choose the appropriate marinade.

Note! Many will use kiwi to soften hard chunks.

Recipe in its own juice + the correct proportions of lemon and onion

Marinade of onion and lemon gives a delicate flavor, and it also becomes soft. For such a marinade it is better to use meat from the neck, as in most cases, if as a result you want to get - juicy slices on a skewer.

Here the process takes about 9 hours.

On a pound of pork neck, we need 2-3 lemons, one medium-sized bulb, salt, garlic and seasonings to taste.


  • Lemon squeeze juice.
  • Chop the onion and squeeze the juice out of it, which we mix with lemon juice.
  • Grind the garlic, mix it with seasonings and salt, and add it to the lemon-onion juice.
  • Put the finished meat pieces in the marinade, close with a lid of a smaller diameter than the dishes and put the load on top (for example, a jar of water).

In this state, the meat is aged up to 9 hours, after which it is squeezed out and you can start frying.

If you want to experiment with lemon-onion marinade by adding various experiments to it, you can suggest the following options.

- lemon and onion with mayonnaise

- lemon onion spicy

Additional ingredients:

  • 100 ml of dry wine,
  • 50 ml of sour cream and the same amount of soy sauce,
  • spoon of sugar and a spoon of honey.

You can also add grated pineapple, or brandy, kefir, mineral water to lemon-onion juice.

Marinade with soy sauce for pork. Marinade recipe:

Soy sauce lovers can use this product. Here, as in other recipes, there are many options.

The simplest recipe includes: for 1 kg of pork - 100 ml of sauce, pepper and spices to taste.


Since soy sauce is salty enough, it is better not to add salt, so as not to get a salting.

Add pepper and spices to soy sauce to taste, put chopped pieces of meat and leave for 2-3 hours. After that, you can start frying.

An interesting recipe for marinade using honey (I recommend using it for chicken, fillet or wings are rich and tasty. And it takes no more than 3 hours for pickling)

For 1 kg of pork you will need 1 medium onion, a few cloves of garlic, 6 tbsp. l soy sauce, 3 tbsp. l honey, pepper and spices to taste.

Marinade on mineral water

One of the original ingredients is mineral water. It gives the meat an original taste. If you decide to use it, then at the beginning, you need to salt the meat, add spices and chopped onion rings. All this lasts about 30 minutes. At this time, preparing the marinade itself.

For 2 kg of meat, we need 0.5 liters of mineral water, 3 pieces of medium onions, 50 grams of dried tomatoes, 250 ml of mayonnaise, salt and seasonings.


Fill mineral water in a cup, add spices, dried tomatoes and leave for an hour.

Is it true that the kebab in the bank tastes better than on the grill?

If during frying it suddenly started to rain, or, you are in an apartment, it turns out you can do without a brazier. You will say that there is something unusual, take a frying pan and cook it on it. However, meat in a skillet is still not a kebab.

And in order to cook it on skewers, resourceful kebabs, came up with a way to fry meat in a jar.

I confess that I did not know about this method earlier. But with each season, he is gaining more and more popularity among Russians.


The method is quite simple!  String the pieces on a skewer, put them in a jar and bake in the oven. The main thing is that the skewers fit in the bank. For this you can use bamboo skewers.

Put the remaining onions on the bottom of the jar and lower 4-5 skewers into each jar (if you have a lot of them) and cover with foil on top. Put the jar in a cold oven (otherwise the jar may burst), turn on the heat and bake for about an hour. At the end of time, turn off the oven, but we don’t reach the jars, and leave for a little five minutes to cool.

Someone will be skeptical that such a recipe has nothing to do with kebabs, but those who have tried it, speak of it with delight. Of course, in each case there are pros and cons.

Some like to smoke, in the fresh air, while others like the home option in the bank. Each of these methods is good in its own way. And I think it makes no sense to argue that it is better.

How to fry pork kebab on the grill?

Good. The meat was marinated, and now you can proceed to the cooking process itself ...


First of all, you need to prepare the grill. It can be metal, or built of bricks, or a whole kitchen complex: barbecue, barbecue and stove.

As firewood, it is better to use deciduous trees. Well suited plum, apple or apricot. Now the stores sell finished embers. This greatly simplifies the process of preparing the brazier, since the logs turn into charcoal for a long time. Therefore, it is enough to kindle a small fire in the grill, and then add the purchased coal to it, wait until they get warm enough, and only then proceed to frying.

How to determine the readiness of barbecue? Bring the palm to the coal at the level of 5 cm from the upper edge of the barbecue sides, if the palm does not stand the heat, then you can start cooking.

Coals should not burn, and have only red color. If they are extinguished, use a piece of cardboard, waving it over the brazier.


Putting pieces on a skewer, make them tightly to each other. The skewers themselves on the grill are laid out just as tightly, but so that they can be rotated freely.

It is impossible to turn the skewer too often. Otherwise, the meat will be dry, and the juiciness that we want to get in the framework of today's article will not turn out.

Do not allow the appearance of flames.

If during cooking, the juice released from the meat drips into the coal, sprinkle the skewer with marinade.


Roast meat for at least 20 minutes, but not more than 40 minutes until golden brown. To test readiness, you need to notch the largest piece. If the extracted juice is clear, then the kebab is ready, and if it is red, then it is necessary to hold it over the coals. And if there is very little juice, or there is none at all, then the kebab is overcooked. We can say that the party is spoiled.

Skewers in the pan - quickly and tasty!

The classic kebab, made of course on the grill, no one will argue with that. However, there are situations when it is not possible to make this dish on the grill. For example, outside the window is winter, but you want “horror” like kebabs. Then you can take the pan and fry the meat on it.

We will use all stages of cooking, from cutting meat into cubes, and ending with pickling it in any marinade of your choice.

The pan is better to use cast iron.


  • Glow on fire.
  • Put the meat in one layer and fry for 1-2 minutes, then turn over and fry on the other side.
  • Fry until golden brown.
  • Then, pour 100ml of water, close the lid, and simmer in this way for 10-15 minutes.

During this time, the water is evaporated completely and the meat is already fried in its own juice.

Open the lid, turn the meat on all sides and see that it has become the color of barbecue skewers. Remove the pan and serve the finished dish to the table.

How to cook shashlik in the electric BBQ grill

The electric BBQ is convenient for apartment inhabitants. Does not take up much space, no need to make a fire. Some advantages. And the most interesting is that the result is worthy!

Meat is prepared and marinated in the same way as for a regular brazier.

The only difference is that on the grill skewers are placed horizontally, and in the electric BBQ stand vertically. Therefore, stringing pieces of meat is necessary in several places, so that they do not crawl down.

After installing the skewers, cover the device with a cap and turn it on.

Due to the fact that there is a scroll around its axis, the meat is roasted evenly.

Cooking time is 20-30 minutes.

It is important to control the process.

Meanwhile, you can pour foam, and spend time with a friend in the kitchen, in the aroma of smoke, like in nature.

Skewers in the oven on skewers or baking sheet

About cooking in the oven was told earlier. It was a kebab recipe in a jar. Let's look at another "spiritual" option - on skewers and baking tray.


We will use the following recipe.

For 1 kg of pork you will need 200 grams of pork fat, 2 pcs. Onions, 3-5 tbsp. Table vinegar, 3-4 pieces. bay leaf and salt and pepper to taste.


  • We cut pork into cubes 3-5 cm,
  • Onion rings and lay everything in a bowl for pickling.


  • Add Lavrushka, pepper
  • Pour vinegar (you can use any other sauce instead: kefir, mayonnaise, ketchup).
  • Close all plastic wrap and put in the fridge for 8 hours.


After time, soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes, and string alternately a piece of meat, onion ring, a slice of bacon.

It should be about the following ...


After that, lay the skewers on a baking sheet or grill.


Here is the result:

Preheat oven to 250 ° C and fry for 20-25 minutes. Every 5-7 minutes it is necessary to turn the meat and water the brine from the remaining marinade.


The dish is ready, you can serve with fresh vegetables, pita bread and greens.

And what method of pickling you choose, so that the meat turned out soft and juicy?
