ingredients
- 3 chicken breasts, boneless skinless
- salt, to taste
- black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
- 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
Method
Step 1
In a small bowl or a shallow plate whisk 2 large eggs. In a separate bowl or shallow plate, place 1 ½ cups of bread crumbs. In a third separate bowl add 1 ½ cups of flour.
Step 2
Take 3 boneless and skinless chicken breasts and slice them in half horizontal.
Step 3
Use a piece of plastic wrap and place it on the chicken. Pound the chicken breast pieces with a meat pounder to flatten out the meat.
Step 4
Once it has been pounded, sprinkle on some salt and pepper to taste.
Step 5
Cut 2 Tablespoons of unsalted butter into smaller pieces and place them in the middle of each chicken piece.
Step 6
Roll chicken breast up with the butter. Stick toothpicks through the layers to hold the roll together.
Step 7
Take each roll and roll it carefully in the flour bowl.
Step 8
Then dredge it in the whisked egg bowl.
Step 9
Lastly, roll the chicken in the bowl of bread crumbs.
Step 10
Heat 5 Tablespoons of olive oil on low/medium heat in a skillet.
Step 11
Fry each rolled chicken breast until the outside is brown and crispy. The temperature inside the chicken should measure 165°F.
Step 12
Remove toothpicks. Transfer to a dish with a lid, then serve.
Step 13
It’s best if the chicken is kept in a covered dish. Better to serve it right away but it can be reheated later too.
