Chicken with walnut sauce
Description
While preparing meat, a cook always wonders which sauce to choose for the dish. The main ingredients here are chicken meat (any part of the bird) and a nut sauce. The sauce is easy to prepare, but only with walnut kernels. If, for example, you use chicken breast, it will be absolutely delicious with this sauce.
