Ingredients
- 6 Chicken breast thinly sliced
- Bread crumbs
- 4-6 Eggs as needed
- 2 sticks Butter
- 1/4 cup Parsley chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic crushed
- Salt
- Pepper
- Oil
Instructions
- Take your butter and put it in a microwave safe dish.
- Melt in 15 second intervals.
- Till soft but not runny.
- Add salt, pepper, parsley and garlic.
- Mix it well and put it in the refrigerator to set.
- Pound your chicken breasts till they are super thin but still intact.
- Do this lightly.
- Now spread the pounded breasts out on a platter and dust with salt and pepper.
- Now take the butter out.
- It should be more solid but not hard.
- You should be able to scoop it out.
- Lay your chicken flat.
- Scoop a little less than a tablespoon of your butter and put it in the middle.
- Fold the sides in and make into an oval shape.
- Be careful to try to make it “air tight”.
- Now break your eggs in a bowl and beat with salt and pepper.
- Empty the bread crumbs into another bowl add salt and pepper to this too.
- Now roll your oval chicken in the bread crumbs then the egg.
- Do this 4 times.
- Put them on a tray lined with parchment paper and freeze it for at least 2 hours.
- When ready, heat your wok on medium heat till evenly hot.
- Place the chicken in the hot oil and make sure the chicken is covered with the oil cook till done.
- Mine takes about 5 min on each side.
- Make sure you turn it every 2 minutes.
- I’m always scared that the chicken will not cook all the way through that I put it in the microwave for a minute once I plate it.
- But if your pound the chicken so that it’s thin enough it will not have any trouble cooking all the way through.
