Healthy, because
Tender chicken breast contains a lot of protein, which is needed for muscle building, among other things. Sage helps with its essential oils for sore throats and intestinal complaints.
Even smarter
If you prefer to avoid a lot of fructose or don't like the combination of savory dishes and fruit, you can also replace the grapes with cherry tomatoes.
