Ingredients
- 179.1 g Chicken breast, raw
- 179.7 g Asparagus, raw
- 46.7 g Yucca croquettes
- 35.9 g Shallots, raw
- 21.5 g Makrut lime-leaf infused maple syrup
Method
- 01Place the chicken breast in a shallow poaching pan with enough water to cover, adding star anise for aromatics. Bring to a gentle simmer (do not boil) and poach for 12-15 minutes until the center is opaque and firm. Meanwhile, blanch the asparagus in the same liquid during the last 3 minutes of poaching until tender-crisp and vibrant green. Remove both and let rest.
- 02In a small bowl, whisk the Makrut lime-leaf infused maple syrup with finely minced shallots.
- 03Arrange the poached chicken and asparagus on a warm plate. Serve alongside the crispy yucca croquettes. Drizzle the lime-maple glaze over the chicken and asparagus just before serving, ensuring the fragrance of the lime leaves hits the senses. Garnish with a pinch of sea salt.
