Chicken souffle with zucchini in the oven
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You can use zucchini of any maturity for the soufflé. If the zucchini is young, there's no need to peel it or remove the seeds. However, for mature zucchini, remove the skin and seeds. Do not squeeze the grated zucchini, as this will give the soufflé a juicier texture. Only chicken breast should be used for the soufflé, as other parts are denser and won't result in such a tender dish. Serve hot.
