Ciro Posted October 21, 2006 Author Share Posted October 21, 2006 Hi! Peri.This is one of my favorite dish. At my restaurant, we serve it with ziti pasta.You could also boil some vegatables , like zucchini, broccoli and add them as side dish.Broccoli dipped in a mixure of flour and water and then fried is also a good side dish that could go well with the chicken terragon.psIf you don't like mustard, substitute it with 3 table spoons of tomato sauce, and you would have the rose' sauce, which i like it a lot. You could also use tortellini instead of ziti.I suggest to try the original recipe first. Let me know!Ciao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
