The recipe,
step by step

  1. 1

    Chicken breast

    Season the chicken breasts (with salt and pepper). Marinade them for 1h30 min in some cream. Remove the chicken breasts, make a cut along them and sprinkles with 100 g of powdered pistachio. Roll them in foil. Cook in a steamer (65°C/149°F in the centre). Let them rest.

  2. 2

    Breadcrumb coating

    Prepare the breadcrumb coating by mixing the breadcrumbs, 20 g of powdered pistachio and the parmesan, and the softened butter. Spread an even layer of the mixture between two sheets of greaseproof paper using a pastry roller. Set aside in the refrigerator. Cut the breadcrumb coating into 10 rectangles. Place them over the chicken breasts. Brown in a slow oven.

  3. 3

    Vegetables

    Glaze the carrots in the chicken stock. Drain the carrots. Reduce the chicken stock and add some browned butter.

  4. 4

    Finish

    Trim the chicken breasts, place them on heated plates. Arrange the carrots and jus, decorate with finely cut carrot slices. Sprinkle with ground pistachios.
