NOTES

1. Pork tenderloin - is a boneless cut of pork. It’s soft and tender and easy to marinate.
2. Chicken breast - The second protein part of this recipe. I used chicken breast without bones because it’s so easy to use.
3. Bamboo skewers - if you might use bamboo skewers, soak them in water for at least an hour. That way, your skewers won’t burn while grilling.
4. Storage
  • Refrigerator - Keep the skewers covered unprepared for up to 1 day in the refrigerator. You can store them in the fridge for up to 2 days (cover with plastic wrap).
  • Freezer - Make the skewers and wrap in plastic wrap and then in a freezer box. Both prepared and unprepared, they stay good for a month. Let thaw in the refrigerator.
5. The nutritional value is per BBQ shashlik, no side dishes added.
