This Italian-inspired chicken dish is refined, accessible and simply delicious.
The recipe was provided by Chef Jaime Chabla, the Executive Chef at Il Monello, a classic Italian restaurant in Manhattan, located just a few blocks away from the UN Headquarters.
The restaurant, which has a long tradition serving fabulous Italian food since 1974, was recently re-opened under the helm of Chef Jaime Chabla and Haxhiaj.
Jaime originally moved to the United States from Ecuador in search for new opportunities in 1992. His passion for the restaurant business began with his first job working as a dishwasher. He is the perfect example of what passion and determination can achieve in the culinary industry as he climbed the ranks to the Executive Chef position at the Tuscany Steakhouse in New York and now at the helm of Il Monello.
