Description

This oriental-style chicken with almonds is a dish that I often prepare at home. The combination of tender chicken with the sweet and sour sauce and crunchy almonds is simply delicious. It is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or to surprise your guests with an exotic flavour. The preparation is very simple and the result is a dish full of flavour and textures. In addition, it is an excellent option to include protein in your diet. Go ahead and try it, you'll love it!

Ingredients (10 ingredients)

  • 750 g Skinless and boneless chicken breast
  • 100 ml Soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Ground ginger
  • 1 tbsp Brown sugar
  • 110 g Raw skinless almonds
  • 2 piece Carrot
  • 1 piece Onion
  • 200 ml Chicken broth
  • 10 g Refined corn flour
  • Sunflower oil

Preparation (6 steps)

1

Marinate the chicken

Clean 750g of skinless and boneless chicken breast, removing tendons and fat. Cut into bite-sized pieces. In a bowl, mix 100 ml of soy sauce, 1 tsp of ground ginger and 1 tbsp of brown sugar. Dip the chicken in the mixture and let it rest in the fridge for at least an hour.

2

Toast the almonds

Heat a little sunflower oil in a frying pan. Fry 110 g of raw skinless almonds over medium-high heat until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

3

Sauté the vegetables

In the same oil and pan, sauté 2 carrots and 1 onion, previously peeled and roughly chopped. Cook until they lose some of their hardness, approximately 2-3 minutes. Turn off the heat and return the almonds to the pan. Set aside until the chicken is marinated.

4

Prepare the cornstarch sauce

In a glass, separate a little of 200 ml of chicken broth. Add 10 g of refined corn flour and stir until integrated.
