Resumo

Chicken nuggets were reformulated by substituting the chicken skin with chia flour and partially substituting the NaCl with CaCl2. Four treatments were processed: Control - 1.5 g/100 g NaCl, without the addition of chia flour; CaCl2 - 75% substitution of NaCl by CaCl2; Chia - 50% replacement of chicken skin by chia flour; Chia+CaCl2 - 75% replacement of NaCl by CaCl2 and 50% substitution of chicken skin by chia flour. The protein content increased with the incorporation of chia flour. Treatments CaCl2 and Chia+CaCl2 presented reduced sodium content. Chicken nuggets containing chia flour showed an increase of alpha-linolenic acid and can be labelled as ``high omega-3 content{''}. Formulations Chia and Chia+CaCl2 presented lower sensory acceptance among the four formulations, but about 50% of consumers still considered them acceptable. Thus, the Chia+CaCl2 formulation could be recommended to consumers seeking healthier meat products, due to its high omega-3 and reduced sodium content. (AU)
