Quail Skewers

@tuduu

Quail skewers are a tasty dish typical of Veneto and Trentino-Alto Adige. The quails are skewered, alternating with slices of homemade bread, bacon, and small onion. They are then slowly cooked, turning the skewer occasionally, until the quails are golden and tender. Butter, rosemary, olive oil, salt, and pepper add extra flavor to this delicacy.
