Chicken With Buckwheat And Cheese Platter Recipe

Prepare the Buckwheat

Rinse 1 cup of buckwheat under cold water. In a pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil, add the buckwheat, and reduce to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes until the buckwheat is tender and the water is absorbed.

Cook the Chicken

Season 2 chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and your choice of herbs. In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and fully cooked through.

Assemble the Platter

Thinly slice the cooked chicken. In a serving dish, spread the cooked buckwheat as the base. Arrange the sliced chicken over the buckwheat.

Add Cheese and Garnish

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheese (such as cheddar or mozzarella) over the chicken and buckwheat. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives. Optionally, add a handful of cherry tomatoes for a burst of color and flavor.
