How and for how long to soak chicken for grilling on a spit?
To prevent spit-roasted or grilled chicken from turning out dry, it is soaked in a salty marinade with the addition of other spices for several hours. At the same time, the already soft chicken meat is soaked in the solution and becomes even more tender and juicy.
The standard soaking time for chicken is 3 hours. But it is allowed to keep the chicken in brine for 4 or 5 hours. This will only make her soak better. But you shouldn’t leave the bird for a day.
For the marinade you can use lemon, lime, herbs
Advice! For marinating, choose a container so that the chicken can be completely submerged in water. If the breast and legs stick out of the water, then after 1.5-2 hours you need to turn the chicken over to the other side up.

Poultry shashlik on the grill
The most original way to cook shish kebab is the Barbadian recipe. It is better to use fillet for it, but you can also use a whole specimen. In this case, the carcass is cut into large pieces. Then the pepper, salt, thyme, garlic, onion, allspice and ginger are thoroughly mixed (it is better to grind it in a mixer or food processor if possible).
The resulting mixture is diluted with zest and rum, and a few drops of lime juice are added to it. The resulting mixture should marinate the chicken for 24 hours. The finished pieces are placed on a skewer (you can use wooden skewers, which can then be left in place when serving the dish).

Recipe 1: Chicken on a spit in the oven
Modern ovens are equipped with a “Grill” function. If you have such equipment at home, you can easily cook golden brown chicken yourself.
Required ingredients:
• chicken carcass – 1 – 2 kg;
• spices for chicken;
• salt.
Cooking method:
In this recipe, the chicken does not need to be pre-marinated. All that is required is to season the meat with seasonings and place in the oven. Let's begin. Mix all the ingredients and put in a bag.
Cut off the tail of the chicken and also place it in a bag. The bag is tied tightly at both ends so that the seasoning is pressed tightly against the meat. In this state, place the chicken in the refrigerator for 6 hours.
Note that the more time the chicken is in contact with spices, the richer and more intense its aroma will be. We recommend seasoning the meat in the evening so that you can put the meat in the oven in the morning.
So, the specified time has passed. We take the skewers out of the oven, tie the chicken carcass tightly, first the legs, and then attach the wings to the carcass. This will prevent the meat from tearing during cooking. Thread the meat onto a skewer and place in the oven.
It is best if the chicken is cooked on a spit slowly, otherwise high heat will make the meat dry and not as tasty. Chicken on a spit is cooked for at least 1.5 hours.
Poultry selection and preliminary preparation
Carefully inspect the carcass, remove feathers with tweezers, if any. Using a sharp thin knife, carefully cut out the gland along with the duct from the rump. Rinse the carcass inside and out. If you do not plan to cut the bird when cooking, pay special attention to the neck: check to see if there is any trachea or crop left inside. To prevent the bird from flying off the spit, be sure to loop the carcass. Tie the ends of the legs together, make a knot over the tail, bring the ends of the rope under the breast, cross them, tie them around the carcass, pressing the wings to it. Tuck the tips of the wings back towards the shoulder joints.
Broiler chickens do not require pre-marination; their meat will be soft in any case. But most cooks prefer not to skip this step, because it allows you to imbue the meat with exquisite aromas. Try to choose a large bird, weighing about 2 kg.
