Poached Chicken with Gremolata Sauce
Servings 4 people
Ingredients
- 2 skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 3 cups water or broth
- Aromatics (optional see tip)
- 1/2 cup nonfat Greek yogurt
- 1 garlic clove peeled and crushed
- 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1/3 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 2 Tbsp fresh orange juice
Instructions
- In medium saucepan, place chicken breasts and cover with water or broth and aromatics, if using, enough to cover the chicken plus about 1 inch. Bring to a gentle boil, turn heat down to a simmer, and cover for 8 to 10 minutes, until the chicken’s internal temperature reaches 160 F.
- Meantime, in small bowl, add yogurt, garlic, thyme, parsley, and orange juice and mix to combine. Set aside.
- Once chicken is cooked, remove from poaching liquid, and slice into 1/2-inch slices. Serve with gremolata and your choice of side.
