  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make gulchekhra from chicken? Prepare the necessary ingredients. You can use any part of the chicken - chicken fillet, thighs, legs. Wash the meat, dry with paper towels, remove films, excess fat, and remove skin. Cut into small portions.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Peel the onions. Cut into small pieces. To prevent onion juice from irritating your eyes so much, rinse the onion and knife with cold water before slicing. If you rub a piece of lemon on your cutting board, it will not absorb the unpleasant onion smell. Peel the garlic cloves and pass through a press.

  3. STEP 3

    Pour vegetable oil with a high smoking point into a frying pan and heat well. There is a simple way to check whether the oil is hot enough.
