It should be recognized that not all of us prefer meat shish-kebab. Nevertheless, it is also worth acknowledging that not all of us know how to cook shish kebabs from tender chicken fillets, which can be easily dried. For someone who has encountered similar problems, our article will be extremely relevant, in which we will understand that we imagine ourselves a shish kebab from the legs and how to marinate it.

- onions - 2 pcs .;
- salt, pepper - pinch;
- sugar - 2 tsp.
- Dried greens (thyme, dill, parsley) - to taste.
Preparation
Chicken thighs and wipe dry. 4 tablespoons of vinegar we brew 8 tablespoons of cold boiled water. Onion cut into large rings and lightly kneaded with a good pinch of salt. In the bowl, put the whole leg, evenly salt and pepper them, pour vinegar and add onions with sugar. The final touch in the marinade is the dried herbs to taste. It remains only to mix everything and leave the future shish kebab marinated for 1 hour at room temperature and 6-11 hours in the refrigerator. Ready meat can be cooked on the grill as well as in the oven or on the grill.
Ardent fans of natural products can replace table vinegar with apple, wine, or balsamic, or flavor meat with lemon juice.

Shish kebab from chicken legs in mayonnaise
Ingredients:
- chicken ham - 2 pcs .;
- garlic - 2 cloves;
- mayonnaise - 3 tbsp. spoons;
- juice - 1/2 lemon;
- chili pepper - 1 pc .;
- parsley - a bunch;
- onions - 2 pcs .;
- salt, pepper - to taste.
Preparation
Chicken thighs and wipe dry. If necessary, cut off excess fat, but do not remove the peel.
Onions and garlic rubbed on a small grater and add the resulting mashed potatoes to chicken thighs. Similarly, we do the same with chilli (do not forget to wear gloves while rubbing!), But we add it to mayonnaise. Lemon juice is also poured into homemade mayonnaise and mixed thoroughly. The fact that the mayonnaise itself is not able to make the meat tender, it is possible only thanks to the lemon, and the sauce itself serves as a flavor additive, which increases the fat content and juiciness of the ready-made shish kebab.
Now it only remains to add mayonnaise to the ham, send the chopped parsley, salt and pepper and mix again. Lovers of bay leaves can throw a couple of leaves of the laurel in the marinade. Now leave the meat to marinate for 3-5 hours and cook the chicken shashlik as usual.
