Description
The simplest recipe where chicken skin reaches a delightful crispiness. It should be cooked just like fatty bacon — covered with parchment paper. This way, the chips maintain their shape and rid themselves of excess fat. A creamy mousse with lemon zest beautifully complements and refreshes the chips, making the dish feel less like a concentrate of fat.
Ingredients
- Chicken skin with fat - 1 piece
- Semi-soft cream cheese - 1.8 oz
- Thyme - 1 sprig
- Lemon - 1 piece
- Salt - to taste

Step 11
Place the filling on the prepared chips.

Garnish with black ground pepper and remaining lemon zest.
