My favorite skewer recipe, in combination with smoked vegetables are superb.

They can be prepared both at home, in the oven, or on the outside grill. They are also very good for those who are on a diet, in combination with salad.

Step by step

Step 1

Wash the meat well, and cut into medium pieces.

Step 2

Put the cut meat in a larger bowl.

Step 3

Cut the onion into 5 mm thick slices, add it over the meat.

Step 4

Pour the wine over the onion.

Step 5

Then add the soy sauce.

Step 6

In the last stage, add salt and spices.

Step 7

Mix all ingredients well with your hands. Cover the meat with a foil or plate, and leave to marinate for about 30 minutes.

If you have more time available, it would be good to make them in the evening and on the 2nd day to prepare them. They will be much more fragrant in this case.

Chicken Skewers with Vegetables - Step 7

Step 8

Cut the peppers into small pieces, and the cucumbers into rounds.

Step 9

On the skewer sticks, place the meat pieces, marinated onion rings, peppers and cucumbers. I usually put them like this - meat + onion + pepper + cucumber - and that's how 4 pieces of meat come out on each stick, along with 4 pieces of vegetables of each type.

Step 10

Usually about 6-7 sticks come out.

Step 11

Arrange the meat sticks on a grill (microwave, stove, etc.).

If you don't have a microwave grill, put them in the oven or on the outside grill. I usually put them in the microwave, at the grill function, about 15 minutes on each side, at maximum power.
