Spring invariably attracts to nature - to eat barbecue, drink birch sap. It's time to talk about recipes for fire. For example, discuss a chicken kebab marinade for a tender, juicy, quick dish. If you've never tried this before, it's time to fix this omission!
At the dacha, we often bake lamb or lamb. In nature, the appetite is excellent, and there is not enough patience to wait until the pork or lamb meat is fried. Chicken kebab helps out. Marinated and fried quickly, easily digested by the stomach.
Traditionally, the dish is cooked over an open fire, that is, a campfire, but if desired, the process can be simplified, modified according to the available resources. There is no way to get firewood - we use coal, which is sold almost everywhere. Do you have to cook at home? Not scary, . There would be a desire!
For chicken kebab, you can take different parts of the poultry. The thighs are considered the most juicy, the legs are often used. And the wings fly off like seeds. The fillet is rather dry, here you have to try to marinate and fry it without spoiling it.
The meat should be fresh, not subject to freezing, from young birds. The color is pale pink with yellow streaks of fat, without an unpleasant odor (it occurs due to the addition of various medicines and additives to the feed for the growth of poultry). Cut the fillet into large pieces, leave the drumsticks and small thighs whole - this way all the juice will be preserved. In addition to skewers, it is convenient to use the grill grate.
For a dietary chicken, it is better to use more fatty marinades, since the meat itself is dry. Dairy products, honey, mustard, and combinations thereof are suitable.

Mayonnaise is often used for marinade. True, this is a moot point. According to culinary rules, it is a cold sauce, which is forbidden to use in cooked dishes, as potentially hazardous substances are supposedly released.

Preheat a frying pan, pour in vegetable oil for frying. Place the skewers in a skillet and fry over medium heat on one side. Then turn over to the other side, cover and fry for another 3 minutes.
