The incomparable advantage of meat chips is that they are cooked without using a large amount of vegetable oil, as is done, for example, with potato snacks. Thus, we get a dietary snack. It can even be used in the children's menu. So, how to cook meat chips at home? What ingredients are needed for this?

Ingredients

Veal 1 kg brown sugar 5 tbsp Soy sauce 3 tbsp Vinegar 6% 1 tbsp Garlic 4 cloves lime juice 4 milliliters Greenery 0 bundles Salt 2 pinches

Diet meat chips: recipe

Consider a simple way to prepare snacks. The ingredients you will need are:

• veal - 1 kg;
• brown sugar - 5 tbsp. l.;
• soy sauce - 3 tbsp. l.;
• vinegar - 1 tbsp. l.;
• garlic - 4 cloves;
• juice of 1 lime;
• herbs and salt - to taste.

If you have fresh meat available, put it in the freezer for 15 minutes. This will make it easier to cut into thin pieces. After the meat is cut, it can be beaten off a little, because the chips should be thin.

After that, you need to prepare the marinade. Sugar, vinegar, lime juice, salt and herbs are added to soy sauce. Garlic must be passed through a special press. The meat pieces are poured with marinade, and they should be put in the refrigerator for 5 hours.

After that, put the veal on a baking sheet previously covered with parchment. These chips should be cooked in the oven at 100 degrees for 40 minutes. During this time, they will give up moisture and become crispy.

This snack contains a lot of healthy protein and has a low calorie content, so it can be used as an element of dietary nutrition for athletes.

This appetizer will be spicy and spicy. The recipe requires the following ingredients:

• pork - 1 kg;
• kvass - 300 ml;
• soy sauce - 200 ml;
• juice of half a lemon;
• mustard - 1 tbsp. l.;
• pepper mixture - 3 tbsp. l.;
• coriander - 1 tsp;
• salt - to taste.

Fresh pork, again, is best placed in the freezer before slicing. For the marinade, you need to mix kvass with soy sauce, lemon juice and spices. Then the meat is placed in a fragrant mixture and put in the refrigerator for 8 hours. After that, the chips need to be cooked at a temperature of 100 degrees in the oven. An appetizer created according to this recipe is well suited to weak alcoholic beverages.

Remember, however, that microwaved meat chips are not the best solution. They will not be as crispy as they are in the oven. In addition, it takes a long time to cook such a snack, and you need to take into account the energy consumption when using a microwave oven. Therefore, experiment with types of meat and spices, but still choose the oven.

While preparing for the hikes, I tried many different recipes for drying meat. These were all kinds of cheese sausages, basturma and many other meat dishes. But as a snack, they were all of little use - this is all a great addition to the main meal. Experimenting with different types of meat, recipes, I had my own one, which I fell in love with just as an independent snack in the mountains. In this case, the meat is not oversalted, and the taste is very interesting. No one from the first time could guess that it was a chicken. Chicken chips prepared according to this recipe literally melt in your mouth, perfectly satisfy your hunger, and are a source of meat protein, which is so necessary in high altitude conditions.

The meat dries out by about 3 times, and the snack portion is about 35-40 g per person, take this into account when calculating the required initial amount of chicken fillet.

What we need to make meat chips:

• Chicken breast fillet
• Bamboo Stem Sauce sweet
• Classic soy sauce
• Garlic granulated
• coriander grain
• Pepper mix or black pepper
• Ground red hot pepper
• white mustard seeds

It is advisable to cook it from the breast, as from the most low-fat, dietary part. Freeze the chicken fillet, then let it thaw a little, to such a state that it is still frozen, but already cut with a knife. This will allow us to cut it into thin slices. The thinner you make the pieces, the tastier your chips will be.

The basis of the marinade is the sweet Bamboo Stalk sauce, which goes great with chicken, and classic soy sauce. Just do not take Heinz, it has a sweetish specific taste, which in our case already gives a sweet sauce.

Pepper, like coriander, I prefer in grains and grind just before cooking. Thus, the flavor of the seasoning is most saturated. Coriander is just useless in a glass with a rolling pin.

Garlic can be used both fresh and granulated. I prefer the second one, since the sharpness will still go away when dried, and there is much less fuss with it.

Pour seasonings into the chopped chicken. I always do it by sight.

And pour sauces. I don't add salt. A sufficient amount of it is available in soy sauce. If you are making not just a snack, but a beer snack, then you can add a little salt.

Then mix everything thoroughly.

At this stage, after tasting the marinade, we achieve its optimal taste by adding the missing spices or sauces. It makes no sense to marinate the chicken for a long time, just wait until it is completely thawed in the marinade. Then, on a baking sheet, cut out parchment paper of the appropriate size for baking.

And spread the chicken along with the marinade in an even layer one piece thick

We send it to the dryer. Depending on what kind of drying cabinet you have, complete drying occurs in 12-24 hours. It is necessary to completely get rid of moisture so that the chips turn out to be crispy. Somewhere in the middle of the drying process, when the top layer of the chicken has already got rid of moisture, for more optimal and faster drying, we remove the baking sheet and dry it on the tray itself.

How to cook meat chips at home without harmful flavors and a lot of salt? Such a product can be a healthy and less calorie alternative to store-bought snacks, even if consumed daily. Cooking dried meat is quite simple. It does not require specialized equipment and skills.

How to make meat chips at home from pork

Pork meat is one of the most delicious and popular foods among gourmets. It is also possible to get the most delicious snacks for beer at home from it. It is best to use carbonate for these purposes, since it has sufficient fat content, but it is not difficult to dry it.

Main ingredients for snacks:

• any soy sauce chosen according to your preference - 50 milliliters;
• table salt - optional;

Cooking dry snacks does not require special skills and training. Instead of a dryer, it is acceptable to use an oven at the lowest temperatures, but this method can significantly change the taste of the slices. The total drying time should be about six hours. However, meat can be consumed already four hours after being sent to the dryer. Such pieces will be softer, but it will not be possible to store them for a long time.

Snacks are allowed to be consumed with beer or other drinks, as well as an independent dish. They can be served with tomato, mayonnaise or sour cream sauce according to preferences.

Note: If an oven is used for cooking, it is recommended to leave the door ajar during the process.

From chicken breast

Chicken meat is considered the most dietary and useful for making dry slices. However, the principle of their manufacture is similar.

A piece of chicken breast must be selected whole, otherwise the chips will turn out to be too small. Beforehand, it is recommended to slightly freeze it or get it out of the freezer and defrost it not completely. Meat should be cut across the grain. For cooking, you need two breasts. Other Ingredients:

• soy sauce - two tablespoons;
• garlic - three to four cloves (optional);
• pepper and coriander - half a spoon;
• sunflower oil - a tablespoon;
• parsley (optional)

Cooking:

1. Cut the pulp into thin strips.
2. Mix all other marinade ingredients. Dilute them a little with water.
3. Put the pieces in the marinade and pour them thoroughly.
4. Leave overnight or six to eight hours to soak.
5. Lay out baking paper on a baking sheet. Spread the prepared slices on top in a single layer and sprinkle them with parsley.
6. Dry in the oven or dryer at 60 degrees for four hours.

And do the same until all the meat is gone. Sprinkle the top of the last layer with salt and spices, pour over the remaining juice.

Other marinades for meat chips

In general, jockeys can be marinated in any marinade you like. But excluding sour-milk, mayonnaise and the like, since then the jerky will be poorly stored (after all, an important quality of jocks is good storage without a refrigerator).

That is, for pickling jocks, you can use other spices, vinegar, wine, narsharab pomegranate sauce, sour fruit juice in different combinations. Kefir, yogurt, curdled milk, horseradish sauce on sour cream, ayran, mayonnaise and the like are not suitable. When I make a new version of the marinade, I will add it to the recipe.

How many chips fit on 1 rack

When cutting, indicated in the recipe, into 1 wire rack, which is inserted like a baking sheet into the oven. fits 1.4-1.5 kg of chicken breast. If you have more meat and need to dry everything at once, then there is such an option - tie the excess meat to the grate with twine (which is designed for baking and does not burn in the oven!) And bake them hanging.

And under all this structure there must be a baking sheet lined with paper, where the first 5-10 minutes will drip a little from the meat. Then almost no drips.

At the beginning of baking, 2-3 pieces may fall off the grill - return them to an empty place. It won't fall any further.

Drying temperature

In my oven, the minimum is over 75 degrees, so I dry the meat with the oven door slightly ajar (the entire cooking time). No effort is required, you go about your business, and the meat gradually turns into meat chips.

They are neither dry nor crunchy, they are easy to bite into and pleasant to eat. Joki is very tasty and satisfying.
