Tavuk göğsü (Turkish: tavukgöğsü, [taˈvuk ɟøːˈsy], "chicken breast") is a Turkish dessert (milk pudding) made with chicken meat. It became one of the most famous delicacies served to the Ottoman sultans in the Topkapı Palace. It is today considered a 'signature' dish of Turkey.
The traditional version uses white chicken breast meat, preferably freshly slaughtered capon. The meat is softened by boiling and separated into very fine fibers or rillettes. Modern recipes often pound the meat into a fine powder instead. The meat is mixed with milk, sugar, cracked rice and/or other thickeners, and often some sort of flavoring such as cinnamon. The result is a thick pudding often shaped for presentation.
The dish is more or less identical to the medieval "white dish", blancmange that was common in the upper-class cuisine of Europe.[1][2]
