Tasteful Chicken bites with fresh green Broccolini in garlic and sesame garnishing. Easy and healthy meal to brake your everyday routine.
Chicken breast is the best meat for preparing. It has a mild taste and easily receives tastes from all herbs and seasoning. Every side dish is welcome. So, you will never go wrong with any. I just like to serve it with something colorful.
This time, as I was walking through the market, I came across a broccolini. It was so fresh and beautifully green that I couldn’t resist buying it for my chicken in a skillet. There was one zucchini just beside it but the broccolini won :-). It was a real pleasure washing it and preparing for the meal.
Ok, I acknowledge that broccolini can never be everyone’s favorite vegetable but at least give it a chance. Just by looking at it your appetite can grow. Mine is :-).
