Chicken pastrami
Description
It works for both holidays and everyday meals. I want to share with you a simple recipe for a very tasty chicken pastrami. This meat is the perfect substitute for store-bought sausage—it tastes much better and is definitely healthier. You can serve chicken pastrami on a holiday table as a cold appetizer, or use it to make a sandwich with your morning coffee or tea. Serve the appetizer at the table.
