Where to find ingredients
You can find these ingredients at local grocery stores or neighborhood markets. Look for the chicken breast and bacon in the fresh meat section, and ensure you use 'linguiça calabresa', a specific Brazilian-style smoked sausage that provides the authentic flavor profile.
Preparation method
- Blend the eggs, oil, grated cheese, milk, and chicken bouillon in a blender until the mixture is homogeneous.
- Add the wheat flour and baking powder to the blender and pulse just enough to incorporate everything.
- Sauté the bacon and calabresa, then add the shredded chicken, corn, peas, carrot, and onion, mixing well with the parsley.
- Grease a baking pan with oil and flour, pour in half of the batter, distribute the filling evenly, and cover with the remaining batter.
- Finish the assembly by topping with tomato slices, a pinch of oregano, and grated Parmesan cheese to taste.
- Preheat the oven to high heat and bake the tart for approximately 35 to 40 minutes.
- Perform the toothpick or fork test after 35 minutes.
- If it comes out clean, the tart is ready to be removed from the oven.
- Let the tart cool for a few minutes before slicing to ensure it stays well-structured when serving.
Observations
This recipe is a Brazilian classic that deserves a permanent spot in your cookbook. The blender-made batter is exceptionally quick and ensures a fluffy texture that perfectly holds the filling. The secret to an irresistible flavor is to sauté the calabresa and bacon thoroughly and be generous with the grated cheese on top. Serve it warm or at room temperature; it is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
