Chicken With Cucumber Horseradish Sauce

Recipe #287546 | 40 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Scandigirl

For centuries the Europeans have cooked with cucumbers, this sauce is great with chicken and I serve it with new boiled potatoes, if I can find fingerlings in the grocery store, I'm happy as they are lovely cooked whole. I serve it with dark Danish ryebread.
