"A" - Azerbaijan - Toyug kebabs (Azeri sour Chicken skewers) recipe

Toyug kebabs (Azeri sour Chicken skewers) recipe
 
Around the world for £4 - A is for Azerbaijan
 
“Azeri chicken skewer is the souring agent, such as lemon juice or vinegar in the marinade. It seasons the dish and also tenderises the meat.”
 
We've modified this traditional recipe to suit the budget and ingredients we can find locally, so here goes.
 
Ingredients:-
 
3 Chicken breasts, cut into cubes
2 tbsp oil
2 lemons juiced
1 small Onion, roughly chopped
1½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 pinch of sugar
Skewers (we don't have them so we just lined the Chicken up in a tray under the grill)
 
Dressing:-
 
1 red onion, cut into thin rings
½ cup finely shredded shredded Flat Leaf Parsley
1 tsp Sumac
Lemon wedges
Wine Wine vinegar
 
Method:-
 
(1) Combine the cubed Chicken, Oil, Lemon juice, Onion, Salt, Pepper and Sugar in a  bowl and marinate covered for at least 2 hours.
(2) Thread the Chicken onto skewers. (Or just link up in the grill tray) Grill and transfer to a large serving plate.
(3) Drizzle the dressing over and serve.
 
We had ours with sweetened Potato wedges and a dressed salad.

Potato and Onion Fritter recipeThese were intended to be more of a Potato Rosti but our grater wasn't up to the job so I improvised! They were actually more like an Onion Bhaji. Certainly not a disaster, but I'm good to admit an error once in a while!
 
They are there on the plates, just dwarfed by Sue's monster pasties.......
 
We served them with Sue's giant home made Cornish Pasties – Recipe here

There is a 'Continental' shop not far from us. Next time we have a little spare cash we'll probably get a bag on Gram flour and try a proper Onion Bhaji recipe.
