Chicken Skin Chips
4 servings
30 minutes
The simplest recipe in which chicken skin achieves a pleasant crispiness. It should be cooked in the same way as fatty bacon - covered with parchment. This way the chips will retain their shape and get rid of excess fat. The curd mousse with lemon zest here perfectly sets off and refreshes the chips, which is why the dish stops seeming like a concentrate of fat.
