Curry, ginger, garlic, coriander, parsley, rosemary, suneli hops, citrus fruits (lemon, orange, lime) and honey will make the chicken taste special. IN Turkish cuisine tender white meat is served with natural yoghurt and mint. In Europe - with mushrooms, bacon, cheese, olives and dried apricots. If you're roasting a whole bird, stuff it with fresh apple or quince slices for a more subtle flavor. Chicken meat in the company of asparagus, tomatoes and cream can be an excellent filling for French quiche. And in combination with pineapples - for pizza.

Easily digestible protein

The benefit of chicken lies in the white meat, which contains a large number of easily digestible protein and many other nutrients. Protein is very important for the body - it is a source of essential amino acids, strengthens the immune system and maintains muscle tone. A balanced composition of amino acids in chicken meat is important for children's nutrition. It is a building material for bones and muscles, as well as the development of mental abilities.

Which meat to choose: chilled or frozen?

Frozen meat is worth buying only if you need to make a food supply for a week or a month. When choosing meat for barbecue, give preference to chilled products - they are usually fresher and more tender, and dishes from them are more juicy and tasty.

What is important to know when choosing a place

Going on a picnic, perhaps, everyone wondered - where is the best place to gather with friends in order to have a good rest. Beautiful places with various activities in Moscow a lot. One "but" - not all metropolitan parks are allowed to fry shish kebab. For illegal lighting of fires, a fine of 4,000 to 300,000 rubles is due. Find out which ones are equipped with fire-fighting equipment and are available for a delicious holiday.

How to check the freshness of meat?

Fresh chicken has a whitish-yellow skin with a pink tint and a barely perceptible smell of fresh meat. On the cut, the muscles of a fresh chicken are slightly moist, and the internal cavity of the carcass is shiny and without mucus. A high-quality carcass does not have fractures of the legs and wings, curvature of the back and sternum, as well as dark pigment spots. The chicken should look appetizing even in the store and make you want to cook something delicious!

How to dress for a picnic to be at ease

Needless to say, picnic clothes should be comfortable, not too light, but not a country-garden outfit, which is not a pity. A denim jumpsuit, a T-shirt with a burger print or a total black look will be just the thing. And light running shoes, unusually shaped sunglasses and a cap with a fun print will complete the look. When the evening gets chilly, throw on a denim jacket or plaid flannel shirt.

What does proper packaging look like?

Proper packaging allows you to see the product and has no damage. The label contains the production date and expiration date, storage conditions, information on compliance with regulatory documents, the state mark of conformity, the name of the poultry farm, the place of production and the brand name. Give preference to poultry in factory-branded packaging with the manufacturer's branded label on which the expiration date is applied. This is a serious guarantee of product quality and safety.

What to bring on a picnic

The success of a picnic directly depends on careful preparation for it. In addition to the standard picnic kit (brazier, coal, ignition, dishes and trash bags), you will need a mini-first aid kit with a band-aid, mosquito repellent and sunscreen. And to spend unforgettable vacation without losing your mood due to sudden rain, a weightless raincoat or umbrella will help.

To nature, to barbecue!

The right barbecue begins with the choice of meat. It should be not just fresh, but fresh! If you do not have the time or desire to marinate it yourself, it is quite possible to stop at ready-made options. For example, juicy skewers of lean chicken breast in Petelinka's spicy barbecue sauce are perfect for those who follow their figure. And lovers of traditional tastes will like chicken marinated in spicy herbs. And do not forget about the grate, which guarantees uniform frying of the dish.

Recently, more and more sites specially equipped for picnics have begun to appear in the capital. At these sites, anyone can fry kebabs. There are more than one hundred and fifty places in Moscow where you can fry barbecue for free in 2019. Almost all of them are located in parks and nature reserves.

In order to calmly sit on the picnic area on a weekend or holiday, come as early as possible - there are many people who want to have a barbecue or barbecue in multimillion-dollar Moscow, and even in not very clear weather it is better to take a seat in the morning.

About the choice of barbecue and skewers:

• Shish kebab is better to cook from fresh young meat. The darker the meat and the yellower the fat layers, the older it is and the less suitable it is for frying.
• It is better to add salt to the marinade after the kebab has marinated, as salt corrodes the fibers and contributes to the rapid loss of moisture during frying, making the meat drier.
• Before frying, it is necessary to remove everything superfluous from the pieces of meat: the remnants of the marinade will burn on fire
• Cut the onion as small as possible, then it will give more juice
• It is recommended to store products in the marinade, if possible, in the refrigerator.
• Exotic barbecue recipe: add kiwi, pineapple, papaya to the marinade - these fruits soften the protein. Marinate no more than two hours
• To speed up the process in the marinade, you can use carbonated mineral water.
• Vegetable oil is best mixed with acid - vinegar or wine before putting meat there.
• It is impossible to pickle meat in aluminum dishes, as the acid corrodes the metal. and the food tastes bad. In field conditions, you can use a plastic bag
• Large pieces of meat can be pierced with a fork, then the marinade will penetrate the fibers better.

Sunny warm weather and fresh summer air are conducive to the traditional national holiday in the bosom of nature - cooking shish kebabs. But what to do if there is no dacha, and there is sorely not enough time to travel out of town? There are many places in Moscow (mostly free) where you can fry meat and all the necessary conditions have been created for this.

Serebryany Bor

This popular place recreation, located in the west of Moscow, is famous for its good ecology and picturesque landscapes. Every year, the number of picnic areas and gazebos on the territory of the forest increases (this year there are already more than two dozen), which are perfect for barbecue and with all the necessary infrastructure - tables and benches, barbecues and garbage bins, as well as dry closets nearby.

However, the influx of tourists is also growing here. Therefore, finding a place to rest is becoming an increasingly difficult task. To occupy free sites with the best views (for example, on bottomless lake), you will most likely have to come here early in the morning. An option for the uneconomical ones is paid vip-tents and gazebos.

How to get there: Polezhaevskaya metro station, then half an hour ride by trolleybus (No. 20, 21, 65 or 86) or minibuses (No. 20, 190 or 593) to the Serebryany Bor stop.

Pokrovskoe-Streshnevo

The park called "Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo" is located just a few kilometers northeast of Serebryany Bor. It is known for its pure spring, from which you can even drink without much fear for health, the diversity of flora and fauna, and an abandoned manor with an old park. Among the ponds there are several picnic areas equipped with everything you need (arbors, barbecues, tables) for cooking meat delicacies. It will be possible to relax in silence in the park only on a weekday, and even then with a small probability. On weekends, this place is occupied by crowds of vacationers who are ready to do anything for the best barbecue places.

How to get there: The place is within walking distance from the Schukinskaya metro station.

Kuzminki-Lyublino

The territory of the park "Kuzminki-Lyublino" is large and divided into three parts - cultural (church, old manor and museums), leisure (attractions, beach, cafe, boat station) and forest (walks among lindens and centuries-old oaks). A large number of picnic areas are located on the shores of Lake Pike and near Shibaevsky Pond.

Everyone chooses a platform here to their taste: a gazebo, a canopy, benches with tables or ordinary stumps. Barbecues have already been installed in many places, but not everywhere. However, everything you need for a picnic is available for rent here. Moreover, you can agree on it in advance, having previously stipulated all the conditions by phone. The disadvantages of rest in Kuzminki can be competitors, vacationers and an abundance of garbage.

How to get there: the place is located not far (about two kilometers on foot) from the Kuzminki metro station.

Northern Tushino

A similar division into parts can also be observed in the Northern Tushino park. Only here it is an amusement zone, a walking area and a special place for barbecue lovers. Free areas with benches, tables and barbecues are located on the embankment of the Khimki reservoir. The beach is within walking distance.

Picnic can be combined with outdoor activities- Tourists praise local cycling routes. You can rent a bike here just like a children's electric car or a golf cart. Cons - intermittently working toilets and a lot of competition for best places especially on weekends. There are also picnic spots a few kilometers away - along Vilis Latsis Street in the Aleshkinsky Forest Park.

How to get there: the place is not far (about 1–2 kilometers on foot) from the Planernaya metro station.

Troparevsky park

This place is somewhat inferior to its neighbors in terms of the degree of well-being and comfort of rest. And this is its main charm. In Troparevsky Park, you can find deserted paths, feed squirrels from your hand, and even get lost. In a word, for a short time feel yourself among the almost pristine nature. There is less competition for picnic places, of which there are about two dozen here - with gazebos, tables and, as a rule, high barbecues. In a word, a great option for those who are willing to endure some inconvenience ( hiking to the destination from the metro, mosquitoes, the lack of a variety of entertainment and attractions, a small number of toilets) in order to isolate oneself from the bustle of the city.

How to get there: the park is located not far (about two kilometers on foot) from the Yugo-Zapadnaya and Konkovo ​​metro stations.

Valley of the Setun River

The largest natural reserve in Moscow (the area is about 700 hectares) invites everyone to barbecue. In the valley there are several cozy picnic spots with gazebos, urns and toilets, tables and benches. You should look for them at the beginning of Starovolynskaya Street, on the streets of Kremenchugskaya, Dorogobuzhskaya and Nezhinskaya. It is better to take the brazier with you so as not to waste time looking for rare local frying devices.

In addition to having a picnic, you can comfortably walk or ride a bike along the long spacious alleys, admiring the views of the Moscow River. Or relax with the whole family. There are several playgrounds and sports grounds for children in the valley.

How to get there: you will have to go to the picnic areas for about half an hour by bus either from the Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya line (from the Slavyansky Bulvar or Kuntsevskaya stations by buses No. 11 or 104), or from Sokolnicheskaya line(from the Yugo-Zapadnaya or Universitet stations by buses No. 103, 130, 187, 260 or 630).

Tsaritsyno

The picnic area in these places is located at a considerable distance from the well-known Tsaritsyno estate and the park area around it. Barbecue sites are located in the Biryulevsky arboretum, a few kilometers from the estate. Here you can find about a dozen well-maintained points with simple but pretty benches, tables, trash cans and, most importantly, barbecues. Nearby are playgrounds and wonderful green landscapes. The arboretum is clean and tidy, there are squirrels, hedgehogs and other forest animals. If near the picnic area it can be very crowded, then there are many secluded corners scattered around, great for hiking.

There are about a dozen of them in total, plus several additional paid points, where vacationers, for a fee, will be provided with the necessary accessories for frying barbecue and freed from the obligation to clean up after themselves.

Finally, for family vacation rented houses (from 1000 rubles per hour) with playgrounds nearby are perfect. Here you can also enjoy beautiful landscapes (for example, oak alleys) and fresh air, get a lot of pleasant impressions.

How to get there: metro station "Vykhino", then - forty minutes by bus number 151 to the stop "Veshnyakovskaya" and about a kilometer on foot.

Altufyevo

In the very north of Moscow, on the territory of the Lianozovsky forest nursery (near Leskova and Melikhovskaya streets), there are also several picnic spots. The grounds are equipped with tables and benches, awnings and barbecues. Each can accommodate about ten people. There are biotoilets nearby. The competition for these places is usually not too strong.

There are shops nearby. In other words, this is not the most common recreation area among vacationers, which will undoubtedly play into the hands of those barbecue lovers who get here.

How to get there: the place is within walking distance (a couple of kilometers) from the metro station "Altufievo".

Izmailovo

Picnic areas here are located not on the territory of the park of the same name, but in the nearby Izmailovsky and Terletsky forest parks. There are more than two dozen of them with large oak tables, benches and, as a rule, barbecues. The latter have been installed here for a long time and partially failed, having burned out. Therefore, it will not be superfluous to grab your appliances for frying meat.

In general, there should be enough space in Izmailovo for everyone, because there are not so many vacationers. Another convenience is parking lots nearby (on Chechulin Street and on the Main Alley). Among the minuses, one can single out the abundance of garbage, which is not always cleaned on time.

How to get there: points are scattered in forest parks within walking distance (1–3 kilometers) from Partizanskaya metro station.

There is also a place for a walk here, however, the landscapes may turn out to be more scarce than in the territory of other parks considered.

In addition to the recreation areas described, you can go for barbecues outside the Moscow Ring Road, where there are many picnic areas with all the attached attributes. There are also places where you can come to barbecue, but only with your own barbecue. The entire list of picnic spots can be viewed on the official website of the Moscow Department of Natural Resources. The quality of the barbecue largely depends on the equipment. Public barbecues are not always in good condition, so you can bring your own, with a leg height of at least 40cm. Also remember that it is forbidden to use wood from adjacent forests, you need to stock up on coal.

To Alexei and Nastya from house 102B on Altufevskoye Highway, in order to be at a picnic, it is enough to leave the entrance and walk a hundred steps deep into the forest park, which is right in front of their windows. On a rectangular platform among the trees - a table, a place for barbecue, an urn. The guys brought with them not only meat, vegetables, bread, skewers, coal and dishes, but also a dozen "elastic chairs and colorful balloons," writes " Vestnik Severnoye Medvedkovo".

We will celebrate a friend’s birthday, we have to come early on weekends, otherwise they will take that place, ”says Anastasia.

There are six such points in the Altufevsky Reserve. Part is located on two clearings closer to Leskova Street, you can come here even without your barbecue, there is a public one here. There are usually 4-5 companies seated at the tables.

Those who came when everything is already taken go further to the pavilions, which are also used as a picnic area.

And here is the Lianozovsky forest park. The signature way of residents of Pskovskaya and Cherepovetskaya streets, who go to barbecues in the local reserve, is to cover the picnic arbor with a film so that the wind and smoke from the barbecue do not interfere. Here, the "barbecue" points are not so crowded, some are hidden in the thick of the forest. If it weren't for the smell of fried meat, you wouldn't find it.

There are a lot of bins and containers in the park, including those for separate waste collection, toilet cubicles are installed.

Visitors to the Otrada park on the border of the industrial zone on Novovladykinsky passage and the residential area at the beginning of Dmitrovskoye highway are greeted with a stern announcement at the very entrance. It threatens with a fine of 3,000 to 4,000 rubles for lighting a fire and using braziers outside special areas - "according to the Administrative Code of Moscow, article 3.20."

But there is no need to run into a fine: in the hollow along the Likhoborka River there are a dozen specially equipped sites. On each - a table under a canopy, benches, a compacted circle for barbecue, bins. For those who do not have enough space, they are located on wide parapets, they put the barbecue directly, but on the path.

It is impossible to put a brazier on wooden flooring - it is a fire hazard, but on paving stones - why not? Please! the guards say.
The hollow is narrow, everyone is in sight of each other. It disciplines. Most people take their rubbish with them when they leave. It can be
leave - in a tied bag, of course - behind the utility block in the bridge area.

In the new recreation area at 62–64 Selskokhozyaistvennaya, picnic areas are large - one for 20, the other for four large tables with long benches for eight to ten people. From above - a canopy from a rain and the sun. For every two tables - one wide barbecue, a little to the side - garbage containers.

We don’t have a dacha, we go here almost every weekend,” says Elena Vdovina from Zapovednaya Street. - Previously, barbecues were fried closer to home, but someone will definitely come out there, start shouting - they say, smoke, smell. And here everything is adapted for this.

Near the picnic area there are children's and sports grounds, there is parking. Big companies like to come here - they celebrate weddings, anniversaries, corporate parties.

This year, there are six zones in the North-Eastern Administrative Okrug where special picnic areas are equipped, - said the press secretary of the Department of Specially Protected natural areas(SPNA) in the North-East Administrative Okrug Lyudmila Mikhailova. - Nowhere else can you make a fire and fry meat.
Previously operating picnic areas on Dzhamgarovsky Pond and in the green zone near Suhonskaya Street are closed today. There were many complaints from residents of nearby houses about the smoke and the smell of roasting meat. The picnic equipment at these points has been cut off, the sites have been dismantled.
