Tavuk butu yerine göğüs kullansam lezzet aynı olur mu acaba?

Tarifi denedim, ama biraz tuzlu geldi. Daha az tuz koyarak deneyeceğim bir dahaki sefere.

Pesto sosuna biraz limon suyu ekledim, tavuğa ferah bir tat verdi, tavsiye ederim.

Evde pesto sosum yoktu, onun yerine fesleğen ve badem ezmesi kullandım. Gayet güzel oldu!

Pesto sosunun aroması tavuğu çok güzel tamamlıyor, ancak biraz fazla yağlı geldi. Biraz daha az zeytinyağı ile deneyeceğim.
