Lemon and Herb Chicken With Peach and Prosciutto Salad

"From Australian Diabetic Living a complete meal. Times are estimated but DO NOT inlude marinading time (2-4 hours). The recipe called for baby beetroot and charge leaves mix but a salad mix of leaves can be used. You could also replace the chicken with a firm white fish."

  1. I cut this back for two people Pat - used 4 small chicken fillets and 3 small peaches. I also decided to grill the prosciutto first, for texture, to add a crispy element to the salad. I cut a block of mozzarella into small slices and everything else was as posted. I used mesclun salad leaves with mixed herbs and some extra basil. This was a sophisticated and delightful salad with lots of layers of flavours. The lemon marinade was the star of the show for the chicken fillets and the conbination of flavours for the salad was wonderful. Enjoyed on the terrace today with a glass of chardonnay! Made for Make my Recipe in the Aus forum and also for Market Gardens event in the photo's forum. Merci for another winner! Karen aka FS!! :-) (Photos to be posted - noted due to changes on the 7th July!)

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
