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.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 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
Butterfly 2 chicken breasts, cover with plastic wrap, and pound to a uniform 5 mm thickness.
- 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
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
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
Rest for 3 minutes after removing from the oven, then cut in half immediately.
Melted herb butter flowing out means it is done correctly.
