About this dish

Slice into the breaded chicken and melted garlic-parsley butter runs out from the center.

The butter is frozen into a firm cylinder before it is wrapped, so it survives the cooking. The pan only browns the crust, and the oven at 190°C finishes the inside.

Instructions

6 steps
  1. 1

    Mix 80 g unsalted butter with 10 g chopped parsley, 1 minced garlic clove, and salt until well combined.

    Shape into a cylinder, wrap in plastic, and freeze for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Butterfly 2 chicken breasts, cover with plastic wrap, and pound to a uniform 5 mm thickness.

  3. 3

    Place the chilled herb butter in the center of each chicken piece, fold in the sides, and roll tightly with the seam facing down.

  4. 4

    Coat each roll in 70 g flour, then dip in beaten egg, then roll in breadcrumbs for even layers, removing any excess at each stage.

  5. 5

    Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and cook each side for 2 minutes, rolling to brown evenly all around.

    Transfer to a 190°C oven and bake for 12 more minutes.

  6. 6

    Rest for 3 minutes after removing from the oven, then cut in half immediately.

    Melted herb butter flowing out means it is done correctly.

Tips

Keep the butter very cold so it stays sealed inside.
Apply one even coating of breadcrumbs and press it gently so it adheres over the seams.
