How this kind of dish is made
The source documents this dish but not a method specific to it. The steps below describe how dishes of this kind are generally made.
Combine the meat or chicken with the listed seasonings and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
Trim and portion the meat, chicken, fish, or other main ingredient for grilling.
Mix with onion and the listed seasonings; knead ground mixtures well or marinate whole pieces.
Thread onto skewers or shape as required.
Grill over hot charcoal or a grill, turning regularly until cooked but still juicy.
Serve with rice or bread, grilled tomato, and traditional accompaniments.
Cook's notes
Cut the chicken into evenly sized pieces for uniform cooking. If using a lot of lemon juice or another acid, avoid an excessively long marinade because it can toughen the chicken.
Background
This dish belongs to the broader Iranian culinary repertoire and is prepared across the country with family and regional variations. Its cultural identity is tied more to home tables, gatherings, or everyday cooking than to a single local origin.
