Oh absolutely, people traditionally soak shish kebab meat in marinade overnight before frying it on open fire. You absolutely CAN marinade whole chicken breasts or steaks, and it will help preserve them, but the main dish for marinades were always small cuts... oh and the guy who said they do nothing, he must be very WASP or something, being unable to tell apart seasoned meat from plain.

@dimesonhiseyes9134 that's what Americans call "white people" and everyone else calls "Americans/British", they have some weird fixation on avoiding every single way of seasoning food (or using vegetables) at all costs. Like in any South European or West Asian recipe you put meat into as much stuff you can as long as possible then cook it with tons of veggies. Not plain piece of meat and peas or beans on their own.

@Slidaulth unseasoned meat tastes worse than one with seasoning, period. What's up with Westerners trying to prove marinades, sauces and spices aren't important? Do you have any taste buds at all?

Marinade the shashlyk meat. However you call it locally, shish-kebab or what. Soaking it oovernight gives it a better taste than just seasoning and immediately grilling. And use more veggies, I don't think Westerners know how to cook meat honestly. A lot of jokes about British conquering the spice ways... to avoid using spices.

0:53 OMG they measured chicken breasts with "science". HAVE YOU TRIED EATING THEM?! They taste differently. Duh!

7:20 IT'S RAW! Where's Gordon Ramsay when you need him? You're eating raw meat. It might as well get up and cross the road.

@Doggieman1111 Of course you can! That's like saying that you cannot salt the meat while it's already cooking, adding spices at ANY point in cooking will affect the taste. Duh!
