It's been a while since I last entered on a SCC, but this week I had to prepare something! I didn't know the japanese word otsumami but I promptly loved the idea as I'm a huge fan of small snacks while drinking and chatting.
Depending on the type of snack (otsumami) I would like to drink wine (olives, cheese, chorizo, ham) or beer (salty or crispy snacks). But as the weather gets warm I tend to prefer beer, so I've chosen to prepare something that would go fine with it!!
My first entry on SCC 23 is easily prepared and it's great to serve at home or take outside! Ah, and it's also easy to prepare (did I mentioned that before?!)
Ingredients:
- chicken breasts de-boned and cuted in pieces
- oats
- 1 egg white
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- lemon

Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 180°C and season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Drain the chicken and dip into the egg white and then into the oatmeal to coat each piece evenly.

- Place it on a baking tray, covered with baking paper.

- Bake in for 15 minutes on one side. Turn the pieces to the other side and bake for 10 minutes (or until the chicken pieces are well browned).

- I like to serve it at room temperature, so I've waited about 20-30 minutes.

It's time to plate!!

When serving sprinkle with lemon juice.
I've chosen the national beer Sagres...it's the most common on Alentejo region.
This "otsumami" can be used as a snack, or a meal if you served this with a salad!!

As you may have notice it is a healthy one!!
Hope you enjoyed!!
