Chicken heart skewers are an original and exquisite dish that combines the rich flavor of offal with the spiciness of the marinade. In European cuisine, hearts are considered a delicacy, and when paired with a honey-tomato marinade, they acquire caramel tenderness and a pronounced aroma. The history of the dish roots back to street grill traditions where simple ingredients transform into true gastronomic masterpieces. Juicy, slightly sweet skewers with hints of garlic and soy sauce are perfect for friendly gatherings and picnics, pairing wonderfully with greens and vegetables. They are easy to prepare on the grill, and their golden crust and rich flavor make them an unforgettable treat. This dish will reveal the full depth of chicken hearts' flavor and offer a new gastronomic experience.
