I think that lately my dishes have some kind of Oriental influence... don't you think? A chicken is a chicken here and in Tokyo, but I never prepared it this way before and although ketchup doesn't come from Japan, the general style of the dish might look Asiatic.
Again, like I did with the Salmon Cubes; this chicken marinated for 2 hours. I'm loving this technique because it takes no big efforts, no endless time stirring the pan and no agressive cooking (I used the oven to finish the dish). And on top of everything the result is spectacular :D.
Some of the ingredients I have used in the recipe are not common ingredients in the Spanish Cuisine; well, maybe nowadays some of them have just been incorporated but, I just have to go back one generation (my mom) and see how many of these has in her kitchen.
Soy Sauce, sesame seeds and ketchup don't exist for my mom. Globalization didn't get her! However she is always open to taste new flavours.
Ingredients for 4 servings: 2 chicken breasts (boneless), toasted sesame seeds, 2 tablespoons of honey, 4 tablespoons of ketchup, 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil and salt.
- Cut the chicken in cubes and reserve.
- Mix all ingredients (except the sesame and chicken) inside a big bowl. Stir and add the chicken cubes. Marinate for 2 hours in the fridge.
- Preheat the oven at 180ºC.
- Strain the chicken. Keep the sauce. Coat the chicken with the sesame seeds. Place all the chicken over an oven's tray and bake for 10 minutes.
- Serve over some salad dressed with the marinate sauce.
