Meat dishes are appreciated in Albanian cuisine for their consistency. Meats that are used in these dishes range from beef and veal to poultry and fish. However, lamb has the greatest popularity in this country. Meats can be grilled and served along with vegetables. Among poultry, the most important roles are held by chicken meat and by turkey. The second one is used in recipes such as Turkey-cock with corn bread and Turkey Breasts with Mustard.
