Zucchini pancakes with chicken fillet and orange sauce
There is a legend according to which gods gave the zucchini to people. Long ago, when the men went to sea, the women of a fishing village turned to the gods with prayer. And they asked for a fruit, as soft as the flesh of a fish, the color of the sea on a moonlit night, and with a skin as strong as the shell of a turtle. In response to the prayer, the gods gave the women a courgette. The gods did not present the recipe for squash pancakes. But we will fix this annoying mistake!
