Garlic | 3 cloves |

Step cooking
- The main ingredient in the recipe is chicken breast. When buying, pay attention to its freshness. Fresh brisket has a pink color and a pleasant smell. Light weathering allowed. You can buy filet or brisket on the bone. In the second case, you will need to carefully hide the skin with a knife and cut the bone. Cut the meat into large, flat pieces, like chops.
- We send pieces to dishes convenient for you. You can marinate the chicken in a bowl and then pour it into a baking dish. Or pickle immediately in a baking dish.
- Then add spices and salt to taste. You can use any at your discretion. You can purchase a prepared mixture of spices. Today we will use 0.3 teaspoons of turmeric and ground ginger and 0.5 teaspoons of basil and paprika, sprinkle seasoning with meat. It is recommended to add a little vegetable oil to the spices, so they better open their aroma. But this is not important.
- Then we clean three cloves of garlic, rinse them, rub them with a fine grater or pass through the garlic. The amount of garlic added is up to you. You can use more if you like the garlic smell and taste. You can add a smaller amount for piquancy. You can refuse at all if you do not like garlic.
- We carefully rub each piece of meat with spices, pour meat with kefir and leave to marinate. It is better to stand a couple of hours so that the meat absorbs the marinade well. But if there is no time for exposure, hold for half an hour. Kefir for marinade can be used with any fat content. The main thing is that it is fresh and has a corresponding aroma.
- When the meat is marinated, send it to the oven for 30 minutes, bake at 180 degrees. Then we take out the dish, let it cool.
- Serve in portioned plates to any side dish or salad of fresh vegetables. The decoration will be finely chopped greens. Additionally, you can serve any sauce. The meat is very tender, juicy and tasty.
