Description

This aromatic chicken with caper and lemon sauce is a dish that I often prepare when I want something tasty but not too complicated. The combination of capers, mint and lemon creates a fresh and lively sauce that goes perfectly with the chicken. The scent of sage, inserted between the skin and the meat, makes it all even more inviting. Perfect for a family dinner or with friends, this dish is a real success. The preparation is quick and easy, also ideal for those who have little time available. A touch of the Mediterranean that brings joy to the table!
