Garden Pleasures: Green "Involtini"
In these last days of august we start thinking of fall... And befor everything will change colours to yellow, orange and red I wanted to use as much as possible of the wonderful green herbs from my tiny garden.
So today not a really "oriental" recipe, it became more a "symphony in green"!
Basically it modified the famous "saltimbocca" using only green stuff!
And now everything step-by-step.
Ingredients:
sage, rosemary, thyme
2 chicken breasts
1 zucchini
pitted green olives (you can also cut the pits out as I did)
toothpicks
1-2 garlic cloves
olive oil
flour
crème fraiche
Slice zucchini with a potato peeler and chicken breasts into slim stripes. Put the meat on a zucchini slice, add above one olive and the herbs.
Curls everythin to a small roll, fix it with a tootpick. Heat oil in a pan, fry with chopped garlic and a little bit of flour to thicken the sauce. Add crème fraiche on the end.
Voilà!
