Chef’s tip for the chicken breasts

Before frying the chicken in a pan, pound the meat with a meat mallet or the flat side of a pan. This is to make the chicken breasts as even in size as possible. When each piece of chicken is a different size, they will cook at uneven rates. Thus, if you don’t pound them out, some breasts will cook faster than others, leaving the thinner ones dried out while the thicker ones can be undercooked. Pounding also tenderizes the meat, which will leave you with more tender meat once cooked.

The Dill sauce

Another great thing about this chicken dish is how easy the sauce is to make. All you have to dis mix the ingredients together and enjoy!

The added flavours like whole grain mustard, turmeric and lime really enhance the dill flavour. And the dill sauce compliments the lemon flavour of the chicken perfectly.

Serve on a bed of broccoli-leek rice

And finally, bring it all together with the broccoli-leek rice. This is such an easy and tasty way to mix a side dish up, especially with something like rice that can easily become bland.

This recipe recommends using wild rice, however since wild rice can take quite long to cook, feel free to use any other rice or even grains like couscous.
