Ingredients

Instructions

1

Slice the chicken breasts into thicker slices (about 1.5-2 cm) to keep them juicy.

2

In a bowl, mix oil, soy sauce, black pepper, paprika, garlic, oregano, and lemon juice.

3

Mix the meat with the marinade and let it sit for at least 10 minutes (the longer, the better).

4

Heat butter in a pan and sear the meat on both sides until browned.

5

Pour in 100 ml of broth, cover, and let it simmer gently for 8-10 minutes.

6

Place a slice of mozzarella on each piece of meat and cover the pan for 1 minute - the mozzarella will soften beautifully and melt.

7

Serve with cooked rice and sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Tip

Ak chceš naozaj šťavnaté mäso, nepresmaž ho. Kuracie prsia majú radi teplotu a paru – preto je ideálne krátke prudké opečenie a následné dusenie vo vlastnej šťave. A ak chceš trošku „gurmánsky“ feeling, pridaj pred mozzarella vrstvou tenký plátok paradajky – urobí to úplne inú vôňu.
