Chicken Fillet in Parchment (in a Pan) Instructions

  1. Finely chop parsley and garlic. Mix with soy sauce, honey, and Dijon mustard to make the marinade. Add salt to taste if using low-sodium soy sauce.
  2. Cut the 350g chicken fillet lengthwise into 2-3 pieces. Pound both sides with a meat hammer until thin.
  3. Place parchment paper on your work surface. Brush one side of the chicken pieces with the marinade, place them on the parchment, and brush the remaining sides with the rest of the marinade.
  4. Fold the parchment paper around the chicken pieces to form an envelope, folding the edges 3-4 times to seal. Refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
  5. Heat a frying pan over medium heat without oil. Place the parchment envelope in the pan and cook 3-4 minutes per side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 74 °C (165 °F).
  6. Remove from heat and let rest for 5-10 minutes before opening the parchment.
  7. Serve with boiled rice, fresh vegetables, or salad.
