Ingredients

GARLIC HERB BUTTER

4 SERVINGS

3 cloves garlic

crushed

2 5/8 g unsalted butter

slightly softened

1 bunch fresh parsley

very finely chopped

CHICKEN

4 skinless free-range chicken breasts

COOKING

cooking spray

for frying

BREADING

2 5/8 g seasoned breadcrumb mixture

Directions

GARLIC HERB BUTTER

In a bowl, mix together the unsalted butter, fresh parsley, and crushed garlic cloves with a pinch of salt and pepper until well combined.

Spoon the herb butter onto a sheet of baking paper and roll up into a short, fat cylinder.

Freeze for at least 15 minutes or until firm.

CHICKEN

Place each chicken breast between 2 sheets of cling film and put them onto a chopping board.

Gently pound the chicken breasts with a rolling pin until they are an even thickness (about 1/3 inch - avoid tearing the meat).

Remove the herb butter from the freezer and slice thinly.

Divide the butter slices among the flattened chicken breasts; placing them in the middle and fold the chicken to enclose the butter.

Chill the parcels on a clean tray or chopping board, loosely covered with cling film, for 30 minutes.

COOKING

Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F) and prepare the baking sheet with cooking spray.

BREADING

Remove the chicken from the fridge and coat each kiev in the seasoned breadcrumb mixture, ensuring each piece is completely covered.

COOKING

Heat a skillet with cooking spray over medium-high heat.

When the skillet is hot, carefully place the kievs into the pan, with the seam underneath.

Fry for 4-5 minutes, turning gently onto each side to brown.

Carefully transfer the browned chicken kievs to the prepared baking sheet, and bake for 12-15 minutes.

Remove from the oven and serve with your choice of mashed potatoes or steamed rice and greens, with extra garlic herb butter if desired.

Chicken Kiev

Chicken Kiev is a drool worthy dish straight from Eastern Europe. You wrap chicken around a scrumptious garlic butter interior before dredging it in breadcrumbs and flour, ensuring the perfect crispy exterior.
