Hey everyone! I hope you're all having a nice Sunday. Today, I'm going to write my first ever recipe for you guys ! It is something really simple, easy, fast, tasty AND healthy! It isn't expensive at all, and you don't have to use products for any particular supermarkets, choose which one you like the most !

ingredients



What you will need:


  • 3 small zucchini or 2 big ones. 

  • French crème fraîche

  • Chicken breast chunks

  • Salt

  • Herbes de provence

  • Margarine

  • Vegetable 'grater' (as seen on the pictures)

And thats it !!

-First, you will need to carefully wash your zucchinis under cold water. It will take out any dirt, you don't wanna catch any diseases from food right ?

-Then, you need to peel the skin of the zucchinis with your vegetable grater as you can see on the picture below.

-Once you've done that, start to peel thin strips from the zucchinis, until you hit the white and a bit granular part, which isn't eatable. It is easy to do, and the fact that the stripes are super fin is adding a sort of sophisticated touch to the recipe! Do that for the 3 zucchinis.

-When you're done, you probably have a pile of strips. Take a saucepan, and put a small amount of margarine inside. Start to warm it (2/3) and add the zucchinis inside.

-Then, let’s take care of the meat. It is SUPER simple. Take some chunks of your chicken and put them in a pan, previously warmed with a bit of margarine. (as seen on the picture above).

-Put a bit of 'herbes de provence' on them, it will add taste to it, it is so much yummier ! After something like 10 minutes, you will nearly have cooked your chicken.

-It is time to add the 'crème fraîche'. Put a generous tea spoon of it right into the pan, and you will see it form a sort of sauce with the herbe de provence. All of this will make a super tasty chicken! (as seen below)

-Take a chunk of chicken in your plate and check it is properly cooked.

-Also, add some crème fraîche in your zucchinis just 1 or 2 minutes before they are cooked. Cook them for maybe 10 minutes, no more, so it keeps its crisp. When it starts to look a bit brown on some bits, you're done !!!

TADA! You've just achieved a super easy meal ! I find it super nice and to be honest, I can eat this once or twice a week without problem! I wasn't a zucchini lover, but in thin slices and with crème fraîche, I found it delicious!

As you can see, I haven't added any pasta, potatoes or rice. Indeed, I wanted to propose you something super healthy. But of course you can add any of those if you want to! :)
