Step 1
This amount of marinade should be enough for 3-4 kilograms of chicken meat. The quantity of onion is optional. If you like fried onions, add 10-15 small onions. If you don't want to fry the onions, just add 2-3 for flavor, so they release their juice into the marinade.

Step 2
Add Italian herbs, salt, and curry to the mayonnaise. The amount of salt depends on the marinating time. If you need to grill quickly, increase the amount of salt, making the marinade slightly over-salted. If you plan to marinate the meat for a day, it's better to make a moderately seasoned marinade so that the meat doesn't absorb too much salt and become overly salty.

Step 3
Wash the meat, then layer it with onion, herbs, and mayonnaise with spices. Mix well by hand. Press down firmly so that all the pieces are submerged in the marinade. You can weigh it down with a press. Let the meat marinate for at least 2–3 hours, or preferably overnight.
