Como fazer Almond Crusted Catalan Chicken
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon grated orange peel, 2 tablespoons honey, 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to create the marinade.
- Add the chicken pieces to the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, occasionally spooning the marinade over the chicken to maintain even flavor.
- In a shallow pie pan, combine 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1 cup matzah meal (or breadcrumbs), 1/2 cup slivered almonds, and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Mix well.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Roll each chicken piece in the almond-matzah meal mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres.
- Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer in a lightly greased shallow baking pan.
- Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for approximately 1 hour, or until the chicken is golden brown, crispy, and a fork inserted into the thickest part meets with little resistance.
- Serve immediately with basmati rice and a fresh green salad.
