#HealthyFood#DietRecipe#ChickenBreast#Cabbage
My wife was getting tired of the same old chicken breast! Today, I’m the chef, making chicken breast delicious in a whole new way with this vibrant dish. Perfect for a healthy meal!
Ingredients- 1 can Chicken Breast (drained)
- 10-15 fresh Cabbage leaves
- 1 Cucumber
- 15 fresh Perilla leaves (깻잎)
- 1/2 Carrot
- Black sesame sauce or your favorite dipping sauce (e.g., chili sauce) to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash and thinly julienne the cucumber and carrot. Wash the perilla leaves thoroughly as well. If using a whole cabbage, take about 1/4 head, or carefully separate 10-15 leaves. Place the cabbage leaves in a steamer and steam until they become tender and slightly translucent. After steaming, you can briefly rinse them under cold water and lightly pat dry to enhance their crisp texture.
Step 2
Lay out a steamed cabbage leaf flat. Place strips of cucumber along one edge of the leaf. This will add a refreshing crunch.
Step 3
Next, arrange the julienned carrots on top of the cucumber. The carrots add a lovely color and a subtle sweetness that complements the other ingredients.
Step 4
Now it’s time for the star ingredient: the chicken breast. Ensure the canned chicken breast is well-drained. Place it either in a solid piece or lightly flaked over the vegetables. This ensures it’s not dry and adds a satisfying protein element.
Step 5
Feel free to add any other vegetables you have in your fridge! Thinly sliced bell peppers, lettuce, or any greens can be added here. This step allows for customization and adds more flavor and texture variations.
Step 6
Carefully roll up the cabbage leaf, enclosing all the filling ingredients securely. Slice the rolls into bite-sized pieces, about 2-3 cm thick. Arrange them attractively on a plate and serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as black sesame sauce or chili sauce. Enjoy this healthy and delicious meal that’s perfect for a diet or a light snack!
