Chicken Aspic with Broccoli
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I really love chicken aspic, and with broccoli this dish becomes even healthier. Anyone who doesn't like the thick layer of fat in aspics and jellied meats will definitely enjoy this dish. It's very easy to make and relatively quick, not counting the time it takes for the aspic to set. This dish will not only decorate any festive table but also delight with its flavor. Serve with herbs and sauce.
