- In a large bowl, combine 200 g minced chicken, 1 tsp curry powder, 0.5 tsp fine salt, 0.5 tsp ground white pepper, 0.5 bunch chopped fresh mint, and 0.5 bunch chopped fresh coriander. Mix well and form into small keftas.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken keftas and cook for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through.
- While the keftas are cooking, bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook 100 g rice tagliatelle according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In another pan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add 50 g julienned yellow carrot, 50 g julienned orange carrot, 50 g julienned courgette, and 50 g finely chopped onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes until vegetables are tender yet crisp.
- Add 1 tsp turmeric and 0.5 tsp Espelette pepper to the vegetables, followed by the cooked tagliatelle. Toss everything together and add the zest and juice of 1 organic yellow lemon. Garnish with 0.5 bunch chopped fresh chervil and 0.5 bunch chopped fresh chives before serving alongside the chicken keftas.
For a more vibrant flavor, allow the keftas to marinate for 15 minutes before cooking.
Ensure the vegetables are not overcooked to maintain their color and crunch.
