When you want to create a balanced meal with the right amount of protein, veggies and carbs with less effort in the kitchen, it might seem counterintuitive to cook one dish that features your favorite protein as well as seasonal produce. In this case, the right recipe is a necessity to whip up a delicious and flavorful dish. I mean it’s the secret equation that makes every recipe a real success in your kitchen. 

Let’s make green peppercorn chicken

Start with sealing the chicken in a little butter and olive oil. Make sure you season it with a touch of salt and pepper. Fry both sides for about 5 minutes or until it turns brown. Once browned, remove chicken from the pan.

Now, we’ll make the green peppercorn sauce in the same pan. Fry up a little garlic followed by the addition of broccoli and carrots. I like to add the asparagus at a later stage as it requires only a few minutes of cooking time.

At this stage, pour in milk, cream and water. You’ll also need to add green peppercorns and chicken stock cubes. A sprinkle of chives add another level of flavor to this green peppercorn chicken. Add chicken back to the pan, and simmer for about 8-10 minutes.

While chicken is simmering in the pan, you can prepare the side dish – pasta, rice or naan.

Delicious dinner idea guaranteed to please everyone in the family!
