Chicken Kiev
Ingredients
  • 1
    tablespoon chopped green onion
  • 1
    tablespoon snipped fresh parsley
  • 1
    clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2
    1/4 pound stick of butter, chilled
  • 1
    egg, beaten
  • 1
    tablespoon water
  • 1/4
    cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2
    cup fine dry bread crumbs
  • 4
    skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 1
    tablespoon butter
  • 1
    tablespoon cooking oil
Directions

1. In a small bowl combine green onion, parsley, and garlic; set aside. Cut chilled butter into four 2-1/2x1/2-inch sticks. In a shallow bowl stir together egg and water. Place flour in another shallow bowl. Place bread crumbs in a third shallow bowl. Set aside.

2. Place a chicken breast half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet pound chicken lightly into a rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Remove plastic wrap. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with one-fourth of the green onion mixture. Place a butter piece in center of chicken piece. Fold in sides; roll up. Repeat with remaining chicken.

3. Coat chicken rolls with flour. Dip in egg mixture; coat with bread crumbs. Dip in egg mixture again; coat with with additional bread crumbs. (Coat ends well to seal in the butter.) Place coated chicken in 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Cover and chill for 1 to 24 hours.

4. In a large skillet melt the 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat; add oil. Add chilled chicken rolls. Cook about 5 minutes or until golden brown, turning to brown all sides. Place rolls in a 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Bake, uncovered, in a 400 degree F oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink (170 degrees F). Spoon any drippings over rolls. Makes 4 servings.

This is one of my husband's favorite recipes. It's crisp, moist, with just enough herbs. Delicious! Totally worth the effort.
