Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Chicken Mixture

Begin by taking the chicken breast and cutting it into small pieces.

Add the egg, cheese, salt, pepper, and gluten-free flour to the chicken. Use a fork or a mixer to thoroughly combine all the ingredients until smooth and well incorporated.

Step 2

Make the Waffles

Preheat your waffle maker. Once it is ready, pour the chicken mixture into the preheated waffle maker. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden and cooked through, typically about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Prepare the Zucchini

While the waffles are cooking, wash and slice the zucchinis into thin rounds. Heat a skillet over medium heat.

Add the sliced zucchinis to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sauté them until they are tender and slightly browned, which will take about 5-6 minutes.

Step 4

Add Fresh Herbs

Once the zucchinis are cooked, add the chopped green onions and dill to the skillet. Stir well and cook for an additional minute to allow the flavors to blend.

Your zucchini is now ready to serve alongside the delicious chicken waffles! Enjoy your meal!
