Ingredients

For a tender, melt-in-your-mouth chicken breast and zucchini casserole, you will need the following ingredients (serves 2):

• 2 eggs;
• 100 g hard cheese, any variety;
• 1 tablespoon sour cream;
• 1 chicken breast;
• 1 zucchini;
• 1 teaspoon «Aromatic chicken with ginger and curry» seasoning;
• ½ teaspoon salt;
• 1 small red onion;
• 1 medium tomato;
• 4–5 green onion stalks;

Step-by-step instructions

Rinse the chicken breast, remove the bone if necessary, and cut the meat into small slices or cubes. Wash the zucchini, trim off the stem, and cut it into slices approximately 7–8 mm thick. Peel the red onion and cut it in half crosswise. Set one half aside, as you will only need the other half for this recipe. Slice the remaining half into rings. Rinse the tomato under running water and cut it into wedges. Wash the green onions and finely chop them. Grate the cheese or chop it into very small pieces, depending on your preference.

In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, «Aromatic chicken with ginger and curry» seasoning, and salt. Add the chopped chicken breast and mix thoroughly to coat the meat evenly. Let it marinate for 15–20 minutes so the chicken can absorb the flavors.

Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on the bottom of a baking dish. Spread the marinated chicken over the zucchini. Add the red onion rings and tomato wedges. Sprinkle the grated cheese and chopped green onions evenly over the top.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F). Bake the chicken breast and zucchini casserole for approximately 30–35 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the cheese is melted. Serve hot and enjoy this easy, flavorful chicken and zucchini bake!
