For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken while it's browning. Serve immediately over hot cooked rice, couscous, or quinoa. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs and a lemon wedge for an elegant presentation. For a dairy-free option, substitute the margarine with olive oil or coconut oil.
