Chicken Kiev
Kiev is a popular dish made with boneless chicken breasts that are pounded thin, rolled around cold herb butter, breaded, and then fried or baked. When cooked, the butter inside melts, creating a deliciously juicy and flavorful center.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs beaten
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well to make the herb butter.
- Place a chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound it with a meat mallet until it's about 1/4 inch thick. Repeat for the other three chicken breasts.
- Divide the herb butter into 4 equal portions and place one portion in the center of each chicken breast. Roll up the chicken tightly around the butter, tucking in the sides to seal.
- Coat each rolled chicken breast in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the chicken Kiev until golden brown on all sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Once cooked, transfer the chicken Kiev to a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
