Cooking the Chicken

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) if baking, or preheat your grill to medium-high heat if grilling. 2. Season the chicken breast with your choice of spices and herbs. Ensure that it's evenly coated. 3. If baking, place the chicken on a baking tray lined with parchment paper; if grilling, place it directly on the grill. 4. Cook for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 165°F/74°C). 5. Once cooked, allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before cutting into it. This helps retain the juices.

Prep

Buckwheat

1. Rinse 100 grams of buckwheat under cold water until the water runs clear. 2. Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the rinsed buckwheat. 3. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the buckwheat for about 10 minutes, or until it is tender but still has a slight bite. 4. Drain any excess water and set the buckwheat aside to cool slightly before serving.

Sauerkraut Side

1. Drain 100 grams of sauerkraut, if needed, and optionally rinse it to reduce its saltiness. 2. The sauerkraut can be served cold as is, or it can be warmed up in a pan over low heat for a few minutes. Choose based on your preference.
