Units Scale

Chicken Roulade

  • 1 kg chicken breast
  • 1 medium yellow onion
  • 250 g white mushrooms
  • 300 g cream cheese
  • 100 g grated Gouda cheese
  • 200 g thin bacon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Sauce

  • 750 ml milk
  • 3 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Butterfly your chicken. The best way to describe it by going with your knife through the middle of your chicken breast without cutting through it. It literally looks like a butterfly chicken breast.
  2. Pound out your chicken with a mallet to 1/8 inches or 0.5 cm. It should be thin but not thin that you can see the cutting board. Salt and and pepper them and set aside.
  3. The filling is really simple. Cut your onions and mushrooms into small cubes. Fry them in a little pan with some oil until the onions are translucent. Let it cool down.
  4. In a bowl add your cream cheese with salt, Gouda cheese and pepper and whip it a little bit before adding your mushrooms and onion mix.
  5. On plastic foil add your bacon at the bottom and add your first layer of butterflied chicken breast.
  6. Add 1 tablespoon of filling and spread it evenly on the chicken. Roll up and pierce it with a toothpick to prevent it from opening while cooking. Continue with the rest of the chicken.
  7. In a large pan put some oil in and fry your roulades on each side until crispy brown, which is around 4 minutes on each side. (It will still be a little raw in the middle).
  8. Pour the milk into the pan and bring it up until hot. Add your salt and pepper. Cook for another 8-10 minutes on medium heat.
  9. Remove your roulades from the pan and set them aside.
  10. In a small bowl make your slurry by adding cornstarch and some cold water together. Pour it to the milk and thicken the sauce. Place your roulade in and cook on low for another 5 minutes.
  11. Serve with rice or pasta
