Italian Marinated Chicken with Zucchini
"A chicken marinated in yummy Italian flavours which also doubles as the dressing for the zucchini! That's a little trick for making your midweek meals just that little bit easier. Finely slicing zucchinis with a mandolin (or knife) transforms them into a beautiful delicate flavoured side salad. If you don't like zucchinis, you can use whatever vegetables you prefer!..."
