Herbal chicken benefits
Both Mint and Cilantro are antioxidant-rich herbs. they have so many health benefits. They lower the blood sugar level also good for skin and digestion.
Mint has a cooling effect on the body, it heals the stomach upset, reduces stress, and many more. Coriander leaves on the other side lower bad cholesterol and increase good cholesterol.
Usually, mint and Cilantro are less popular among kids. We tend to pick them up and set them aside while eating. I blended everything to make a fine paste and then cooked it with chicken. It has blended very well with the chicken and the color is also so appealing.
The interesting part is that everyone is unsure about the mint and coriander part and hence you can feed the family some healthy food.
