Grilled chicken breast and vegetables with two sauces

Cookinero 9 November 2022

Chicken breast and vegetables in a grill pan with two sauces is an excellent solution for a family dinner at home or in the country (if suddenly the weather does not allow you to enjoy cooking over an open fire). The dish turns out to be almost dietary, because this part of the bird contains a minimum amount of fat and is easily digested. As for sauces, they are much healthier than any store-bought ones. Well, even the most picky gourmets will appreciate their taste. Just try not to dry out the chicken breast when grilling, otherwise it will not turn out as tender as it should ideally: 5 minutes per side and two or three turns will be enough.

Leftover grilled chicken and vegetables can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Make sure to cool them down completely before storing.
Absolutely! Replace the chicken breast with grilled halloumi cheese, thick slices of tofu or portobello mushrooms. Grill them similarly to the chicken.
