Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts for a starter or 4 for a main course
  • 200 g or 400 g fresh green beans
  • 1 or 2 tbsp. mayonnaise
  • 1/2 tsp. wasabi tube or powder, 1 tsp. fresh wasabi
  • 4 shiso leaves

Directions

  1. Steam the chicken breasts, making sure they are cooked through. To check doneness, cut off the thickest part. Once cooked, cut into thin strips for a delicate presentation.
  2. Remove the stalks from the green beans and blanch for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on thickness, in a pan of boiling water with a pinch of salt. Drain and immediately plunge the beans into a bowl of iced water to stop the cooking process. Check that they have cooled and drain. Dry or pat dry with a kitchen towel or paper towel.
  3. Mix the mayonnaise and wasabi to create a smooth, tangy sauce.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, green beans and mayonnaise-wasabi sauce. Mix gently to coat each ingredient.
  5. For a refined effect, arrange the mixture on a shiso leaf. This will add a touch of freshness and flavor.
