For a dish that looks like it belongs in a fine dining restaurant but is super easy to make, try your hand at this cheese-stuffed chicken kiev.


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  30-60 minutes

ingredients

2 skinned & boned chicken breasts, halved, pounded to 1/4" thick
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 teaspoons minced fresh or freeze dried chives
4 strips part-skimmed mozzarella cheese, each about 1"x 1/2"x 1/2"
1 large egg white
1 tablespoon skim milk
1 tablespoon water
1/4 cup unsifted flour
1/3 cup fine dry bread crumbs
1 tablespoon unsalted margarine

directions

Sprinkle the chicken breasts with the pepper, garlic, and the chives. Lay 1 strip of cheese in the center of each chicken breast, fold the ends over, then roll up as for a jelly roll and fasten with toothpicks.

In a pie pan, whisk the egg white, milk, and water together. Place the flour and bread crumbs on separate plates.

Dip the chicken rolls in the flour, then in the egg mixture, then in the crumbs to coat evenly. Arrange on a rack and refrigerate, uncovered, at least 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a heavy 10" skillet, melt the margarine over moderately high heat, add the chicken rolls, and brown on all sides, turning carefully--about 10 minutes.

Transfer to an ungreased 8"x8"x2" baking pan and bake, uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes.

Serve immediately.
