Grilled chicken breast skewers

Cookinero 26 November 2022

Grilled chicken breast kebab is an excellent, almost dietary alternative to regular meat fried over an open fire, because, as you know, this part of the bird contains the least amount of fat. True, many believe that this is why it is not very well suited for this method of heat treatment. Like, the kebab will turn out too dry. We hasten to reassure skeptical citizens: this will not happen if you do not overexpose the skewers on the fire and turn them over often. If you are not worried about the amount of extra calories, you can wrap the chicken fillet pieces with strips of bacon and fry the chicken breast skewers on the grill in this form. Try it!
