Baked Chicken Oats Sticks
Firstly, I know many of us have challenges with food choices when we are trying to shed some inches off the waist line, hips or tummy. We go for salads, try some oil less soups. By the way, sometimes the soups have oil coming from the protein and other such bland meals.
Furthermore, the whole low-calorie dishes are usually bland and not quite sustainable to eat on a long term basis. In a lot of cases I find people abandon the diet plan and go back to their regular meals. Therefore, what I recommend for any weight loss is to lose weights on foods you can keep as part of your everyday meal.
Well I have been fortunate not to have a serious need to go on a weight reducing diets. However, the few times I have had to do it I have made sure I enjoy my meal and also mind what I put on the plate in terms of the nutrients and the portion.
Today I bring you baked Chicken Oats Sticks. This is one meal you can prepare in advance and keep in the fridge and vary the accompaniment in terms of vegetables or other dishes that will not bring extra calories.
Finally, this meal is not just for dieters, I enjoyed every bite of this Chicken Oats with vegetables, fried plantain and Moin Moin. Enjoy.
Recipe
Ingredients
1 Whole Chicken breast
1/2 cup Oats
1 teaspoon Dry Pepper flakes
2 tablespoons chopped Spring Onion
1 clove Garlic
1/2 teaspoon crushed Ginger
Pinch of Chicken Seasoning
3 tablespoons Olive Oil
Salt to taste
Method
- First of all, heat up the oven to mark 375.
- Secondly, soak the skewers in water for about 1 hour.
- Place the chicken breast in a zip lock bag and hit with a rolling pin or a mini pestle until it has been completely broken into shreds or minced.
- Start to season the chicken with pepper, ginger, spring onion, chicken seasoning, oats soaked in a little water, salt and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Mix well and allow to marinade.
- Mould into small balls. To help mold the balls rub the remaining oil on your hands.
- Pass the skewers through the Chicken Oat and set aside to rest for about 10 minutes.
- Place on oven rack or tray and bake for almost 25 minutes. Whilst baking you may brush a little oil on the surface of the chicken to prevent.
- Finally, serve with vegetables of choice and Moin Moin.
