It turns out a kebab with onion juice super-tender, juicy and aromatic due to the fact that the meat is pre-marinated in freshly squeezed onion juice with spices. The process of making a shish kebab is possibly a little more complicated because some of the onion will have to be finely chopped, but the result is worth it! But in order for the kebab to turn out excellent, you should choose the right meat. It should be chilled, not frozen. Chilled meat should be soft, when you press on it with your finger, the fossa should quickly recover. Choose lighter meat, because it is younger.
