Chicken shashlik (marinade recipe)
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Chicken kebabs can perfectly replace pork ones. Chicken meat doesn't need long marinating—it always turns out tender and soft. Keep in mind that chicken is not as juicy as pork, so avoid overcooking it and choose a suitable marinade. Serve the kebabs immediately after cooking. The dish is ready to be served.
