This vibrant chicken paillard with clementine salsa is a refreshing way to brighten up a midweek dinner. By flattening the chicken breasts into thin paillards, the meat cooks quickly and evenly, remaining tender and succulent. The accompaniment of a zesty, hand-chopped salsa provides a beautiful contrast in textures, combining sweet citrus notes with the subtle heat of serrano chilli and the fragrance of fresh Mediterranean herbs.
As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe focuses on lean protein and fresh, whole ingredients without the need for heavy sauces. It is naturally low in saturated fat and packed with vitamin C from the clementines and tomatoes. Serve it alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed seasonal greens for a nutritious, balanced meal that feels light yet satisfying.
