Chicken rolls are not only tasty, but also an elegant dish that can become a real decoration of your lunch or dinner. Thanks to the simplicity of preparation, this dish will conquer the hearts of gourmets.
Ingredients:
- 2 chicken fillets
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 100 g of cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions or dill
- 4 pieces of boiled ham or bacon
Method of cooking:
Arrange the chicken fillets on a cutting board, salt and pepper to taste. Spread half of the cream cheese evenly over each fillet.
Sprinkle chopped green onions or dill on top. Place two pieces of ham or bacon on each fillet. Using toothpicks or cooking threads, twist the chicken fillets into rolls. Secure the ends of the rolls so that the filling does not leak out during cooking. Heat a frying pan with a little oil over medium heat.
Fry the rolls on both sides until golden brown and the meat is cooked inside (about 8-10 minutes on each side). After cooking, remove the toothpicks and serve the chicken rolls, cutting them into circles.
Variations and additional ideas
- With vegetable filling: Add a filling of tomatoes, bell peppers, spinach and other favorite vegetables to chicken rolls.
- With cheese filling: Use not only cream cheese, but also other types of cheese, such as mozzarella, cheddar or feta.
- With aromatic spices: Add paprika, turmeric or Italian herbs to chicken rolls for a richer taste.
Advices:
For juicier rolls, you can marinate the chicken fillet before cooking in a marinade of olive oil, lemon juice, spices and herbs.
Instead of frying in a pan, chicken rolls can be baked in the oven or steamed.
Serve chicken rolls with a side dish of rice, pasta or vegetables, as well as with your favorite sauce.
Let your chicken rolls become a real decoration of your table!
