How to make barbecue chicken hearts. Chicken heart skewers

Chicken hearts marinated in soy sauce- a good appetizer, and, by the way, a full-fledged second course. Bright in taste, slightly salty, which is great for beer.

It can be made both in a skillet and on coals, so there is a good opportunity to bring some additional dishes to the usual one.

Fortunately, Asian-style chicken hearts practically do not require labor.

For Asian style chicken hearts you will need:

• Chicken hearts. 200 gr.
• Soy sauce. 50 ml.
• Worcestershire sauce. ½ tablespoon.
• Garlic. 1 clove.
• Ginger. Small piece.

I would like to say right away that the proportions of the marinade are very conditional. No one bothers to add your favorite spices, add chili for spiciness, etc.

Prepare marinade for chicken hearts.

Cut the garlic into slices, and thinly slice the ginger. Who likes a more intense ginger smell - you can grate the ginger.

Pour soy sauce into a suitable plate, add the same amount of cold boiled water to remove excess salinity from soy sauce, add Worcester sauce, put garlic and ginger. Add spices if desired.

We wash the chicken hearts, cut off excess fat and the remaining vessels from them. If caked blood remains inside, then we remove it as well, since it is cleaned out quite easily. We squeeze the heart with our fingers, and the blood clot flies out of the heart on its own. It remains only to rinse.

Put the prepared hearts into the marinade.

Leave the hearts to marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Roast chicken hearts.

When the hearts are marinated, we take them out of the marinade, peel them from ginger and garlic and put them on skewers if you are doing it in a frying pan or on skewers if you are grilling.

If you are doing it on the grill, then grease the hearts with vegetable oil before putting the skewers on the coals.

I did it in a skillet.

Heat a little vegetable oil in a frying pan and put the skewers with hearts into the frying pan.

Fry the hearts in a skillet over medium heat, turning often, until tender - about 20 minutes. This is enough for the hearts to be completely cooked and soft. Be careful, the oil splashes a lot.

If desired, at the end of cooking, you can splash some of the remaining marinade into the pan and evaporate it until thick so that the hearts are covered with a viscous sauce. This will add a lot of saltiness, but it will add flavor, and for the same beer, a saltier snack is preferable.

Serve with fresh vegetables and fresh bread.

Grill chicken heart skewers on moderate coals for 20 minutes.
