Cooking

I was prepared for a big company, so the portions are large. For starters calf well wash, ossipee feathers, if necessary, and dry. Here they are: waiting)))

Now we need each leg to release from the bone. At the top of the leg slightly and gently move the meat with a knife cut the tendon, which, in fact, the meat rests.

Gradually, stocking and remove meat from bone, in the course of cutting around the bone. It should look like this

Gently at the base of the hatchet chop off the bone. And give Shin original appearance. So do the rest of the legs.

Here are our legs, ready for pickling. Salt them and pepper to taste. For the marinade mix soy sauce with orange juice. Fill the legs with marinade and leave.

But in the meantime, prepare a filling. Mushrooms wash, Pat dry on a paper towel and chop as fine as possible.

Onion peel and cut small cubes.

Grate the carrots on a fine grater.

In a pan warm up some oil and fry the mushrooms on it 7 minutes. Add the onion, and after a minute 3 - carrot. Add salt, seasoning and bring to readiness.

Let the filling cool and grate on a coarse grater cheese in it.

Now we are going to stuff the Shin. Take the leg, put it on the hand. Use a teaspoon to place the stuffing in the middle, in the place where was the bone.

It turns out that this stuffed leg.

Stuffed legs spread in a deep Deco or other container for baking. Pour marinade.

Orange and lemon cut into slices and spread on the chicken.

Deco cover with foil and bake it in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees for 20 minutes.

Take out of the oven, remove the foil, legs pour the resulting sauce and again sent to the oven. Bake for 20-30 minutes, periodically basting with sauce. When the sauce thickens, the dish is ready! Legs out very tender and flavorful! Serve, pouring sauce.
