Ingredient List:
- 2 Lemons
- 4-6 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast Slices
- 3 Cups Mixed Veggies of Preference (Corn, Shredded Carrots, Green Peas is the traditional Brazil way to go)
- 1/2 Cup Raisins
- 1 Small Bag of Yoki Batata Palha (70 grams)
- 3-4 Tablespoons Light Mayo
- 1/3 Cup Half & Half
- Sazón Veggie Seasoning
- Salt, Pepper, Paprika, Garlic Powder, Green Onions
How-to:
- Cut chicken pieces into thirds then squeeze lemon juice over both sides before sprinkling on seasoning. Cook in an Instant Pot on high pressure for 25-30 min or in an oven set to 350F for 30 min. (Tip: If using Instant Pot add a small amount of water or chicken broth before putting in chicken)
- Prep the veggies while chicken is cooking. Wash veggies. Shred carrots. Bring a pot of water to a boil then add veggies, turn heat down to medium, and cook for 10-12 min. (Tip: Use a microwave steamer to save time!)
- Pour veggies into a strainer to dry while shredding chicken. Once dried add into a bowl with raisins. Add Sazón Seasoning, then stir to mix.
- Once chicken is done cooking place into a large bowl and shred with a fork.
- Add all ingredients into one bowl along with Mayo and Half & Half and mix thoroughly. (Tip: Here you can add green onions and a bit more seasoning if desired)
- Pour entire Salpicão Mix into serving container then layer the top with Yoki fries enough to cover the entire top of the dish. Serve and enjoy!
- Traditionally this meal is served cold as a side item. However, it can be heated in an oven after step 6 to serve warm.
