The combination with shrimp and sea buckthorn sauce brings an innovative taste that reflects modern culinary trends, emphasizing health and natural ingredients. Sea buckthorn, known for its nutritional properties, offers not only a unique flavor but also a boost of vitamins. Step by step Step 1: Preparing the chicken 1. Start by cutting the chicken breast into suitable pieces. Make sure you have evenly sized pieces for even cooking. 2. In a large bowl, add the olive oil, crushed garlic (4 cloves would be ideal), sea buckthorn, soy sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix all ingredients well to create a flavorful marinade. 3. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and mix to coat them evenly with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for about an hour. This step is essential to help the flavors penetrate the meat. Step 2: Preparing the potatoes 1. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized cubes. This will ensure even baking. 2. In another bowl, combine the potatoes with oil, salt, pepper, crushed garlic, paprika, and your preferred spices. Mix well until the potatoes are evenly coated. Step 3: Baking 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. 2. Remove the dish from the refrigerator and add the potatoes to the chicken dish. Make sure the potatoes are distributed evenly. 3. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil and place it in the oven. Let it bake for 30 minutes. 4. After 30 minutes, remove the lid and let it bake for an additional 15 minutes. This will allow the potatoes to become golden and crispy. Step 4: Finishing and serving 1. In the last 5 minutes of baking, add the shrimp on top of the chicken and potatoes, so they cook perfectly without becoming too rubbery. 2. Once everything is cooked, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. 3. Oven-baked chicken with shrimp and sea buckthorn sauce is served hot, alongside a fresh salad. A beetroot salad would be an excellent choice, bringing a note of freshness and a contrast of colors. Useful tips - The secret to juicy chicken: Marinating is essential! Let the meat marinate as long as possible, if you can. - Variations of ingredients: You can add seasonal vegetables like carrots or zucchini to enrich the dish. You can also replace the shrimp with fish or tofu for a vegetarian option. - Complementary sauces: A yogurt sauce with dill or a lemon and olive oil vinaigrette would add a note of freshness. - Calories and nutritional benefits: This recipe has approximately 450 calories per serving, being rich in proteins and vitamins due to the sea buckthorn and vegetables. Frequently asked questions - What can I use instead of sea buckthorn? If you can't find sea buckthorn, you can use a berry sauce to add a sweet-sour note. - How can I adjust the baking time? The time may vary depending on the size of the chicken pieces, so check if the chicken is well-cooked by cutting a piece to see if the juice is clear. - Can I prepare the recipe in advance? Sure! You can marinate the chicken a day ahead and keep it in the refrigerator, and the potatoes can also be prepared, but add them to the oven on the day of serving for freshness.
