Use boneless skinless chicken thighs instead of the chicken breast if you like. Other serving options: cubed cucumbers, sliced olives, chopped parsley, crumbled feta, and fried or roasted eggplant.

Tip Two: The butter in the butter/egg bowl may start to thicken up somewhat. That's to be expected and perfectly fine.
