Nutritional values

Chicken breast is lean and supplies a lot of protein, which can be utilized by the body particularly well. It is also a good source of the trace element zinc, which plays a decisive role in immune defence and supports the healing of skin wounds.

During the summer season you should definitely try this recipe with braised cucumber. It has to cook slightly longer than cucumber, has more aroma and tastes stronger.
