Yalancı Tavuk Göğsü Tatlısı (literally: “Fake Chicken Breast Dessert”) is one of the traditional desserts of Turkish cuisine, known for its soft, creamy texture. The original recipe included shredded chicken breast, which gave the dessert a unique consistency. However, the modern version no longer contains chicken, hence the name “yalancı” (fake).
