Ratatouille is traditionally considered a vegetable dish, but sometimes life makes its own adjustments to recipes. Apparently, the traditional ratatouille seemed to someone not satisfying enough, and he decided to add meat, and this is how the chicken fillet recipe turned out. Of course, instead of fillet, there can be absolutely any meat, and not just poultry meat.
The cooking process will take you about 2 hours: the dish will bake for about an hour and it will take about 40 minutes to put the vegetables and minced meat in a mold and prepare the sauce. This portion of ratatouille is enough to feed a family of 3-4 people.
