Ingredients

  • 2 x double skinless Chicken Breast fillets
  • 2 eggs
  • flour
  • salt & pepper
  • 3 cups fresh white breadcrumbs (or packaged will do)
  • 2oz butter
  • 2 tablespns oil
  • Butter filling:
  • 4oz butter
  • salt & pepper
  • 2 tablspns chopped parsley
  • 4 shallots
  • 1/2 clove garlic, finely chopped

Directions

Mix butter ingredients together and lay on some greaseproof paper. Roll into a log shape and refrigerate till firm. Once firm, cut into segments (size to your preference). Place a butter segment in the middle of each chicken breast. Roll up to secure butter in the middle. Seal edges with some beaten egg. Coat parcels with flour, dip in beaten egg, then coat in breadcrumbs. Shallow fry briefly all over to brown, then place in oven until cooked (approx 20-30min). Juices will start running when cooked.
Butter will 'ooze' out when chicken is cut into. Very yummy!!


For a lower fat version, use light margarine, and instead of the shallow frying, spray with canned oil and bake.
