Description
This recipe won't take much time. Want to treat your loved ones to a delicious, original, yet easy-to-prepare dish on New Year's Eve? I recommend trying this recipe for "Meat Little Pigs." Tender, incredibly tasty, and juicy filling with a little surprise inside, covered with an aromatic crispy crust, will delight even the most picky eaters. You can serve the "little pigs" on their own or with any side dish. Chicken skin can be purchased at a specialized poultry store or collected in advance after using chicken breasts or a whole chicken—simply peel it off and freeze until needed. The filling for the "little pigs" can vary; I hope you'll enjoy my version and feel inspired to make this hearty and delicious holiday dish. Serve hot.
