Classic okroshka with whey and kvass is mainly prepared just to enjoy the cold dish. But okroshka in broth, besides pleasure, will also saturate well. In addition, it can be consumed on a lax diet. Since the calorie content of the dish is minimal, a 100 g portion contains only 60 Kcal. At the same time, white chicken meat contains a lot of protein, which the body needs during physical activity. Therefore, if you still do not know what to cook for dinner and how to feed your family, then make a cold okroshechka in chicken broth. She will bring variety to the everyday menu and will worthily add to the list of summer dishes.
The main nuance of this recipe is that the broth must be cooked from lean chicken, after removing the skin and removing the fat from the meat. But if the bird is fatty, then put the boiled broth in the refrigerator for a day. After this time, a layer of fat will solidify on the surface, which can be simply removed. Then the broth will become more dietary.
Products for okroshka are traditionally taken as follows: potatoes, cucumbers, eggs, herbs and meat product. However, if a radish is found in the garden, then be sure to put it in the dish as well. It will give a delicate taste and brightness. Sour cream, mayonnaise or the same products in equal proportions are used as a milk dressing. You can also add mustard if desired.
