Hi, welcome back to Ichi's Fusion Recipes! Well, well, today I am gonna share my fusion recipe, I call it Roasted Chicken Breast with Sukiyaki Sauce. It sounds unusual since I do not eat meat including chicken meat. However, it just only me, so basically, not often but still buying meat is on my shopping list and cooking meat menu sometimes.
Eating chicken meat was a luxury dish for most villagers where I came from. The reason was just simply they could not afford to buy chicken meat at the market. Vegetables, tempeh, tofu, and dried fish were the most popular ingredient among villagers at the time for daily meals. You guess cooking chicken menu was only once a year. Did they raise hen farm in each household? Yes, they did. Besides doing farm, every household raised goat and chicken. But people in my village would rather sell it than cook it to feed their family. Why? The strongest reason was they needed money to buy salt, sugar, rice, soap, and any other things for life. The most expensive were school tuition fees and health care! Many years ago someone said to me, "Money is not everything and you could buy happiness with money!" Well, is that so? In the real-life, everything needs money.🤷♀️ I agree we can't buy happiness, however, in my hometown at that time, if a poor family needed rice they couldn't simply came to the grocery shop and brought their vegetable from the garden, then did barter for the rice. The shop owner asked for money not barter. That's the real world. Without rice, the poor family felt sad because they were hungry. But, they would very happy if could bring home rice for their children. The sad story comes from my friend. Many years ago, my friend died after a few days got a fever and her mother did not bring her to the village doctor and didn't have money to buy medicine either. Buying chicken meat at least once a year and cooked a special menu on that occasion day would bring happiness to the entire family, especially children. That's how special chicken menu from where I came from.
Now, let's talking about this recipe, using Japanese sauce, sukiyaki sauce, I want to create something different on how to bake the chicken. I think after using this ingredient for my fish, I am confident to apply it to the chicken recipe. This is a simple yet tasty menu!
Ingredient:
- 500 g of boneless and skinless chicken breast
- 30 ml of sukiyaki sauce
- 10 g of garlic
- 5 g of black pepper powder
- 7-10 g of paprika powder
- 1 lime
- 1 big yellow onion
- 1 big-medium red onion
- a bunch of celery
- 200 ml of olive oil
- Wash the chicken breast on running water
- Place the chicken breast in a bowl
- Pour sukiyaki sauce, add garlic powder, paprika powder, and black pepper
- Add celery and lime juice; mix them well. Take aside
- Cut the yellow and red onion in a thin slice or finely cut - it's up to you
- Prepare a container; place some of the yellow and red onion that you cut
- Place the chicken breast on it and bury them with the rest of the onion
- Close the container and put it in the fridge at least for one hour
- After an hour, take out from the fridge and prepare the tray. Pour olive oil on the tray, and place the chicken breast on the tray, pour or spray some olive oil on the chicken breast
- Preheat the oven for a few minutes then bake the chicken breast for about 40-50 minutes in 230 degrees Celcius. Tips: I set my oven for 20 minutes at 230 degrees Celcius first; then flip the chicken breast and bake for another 20-30 minutes
- Next; prepare the plate and put a roasted chicken breast on it
- I decided to combine it with mashed potato and sweet potato leaves & seaweed soup!
- And I just baked one piece of chicken breast, and bake another on the next day!🙂
