Ready In: 35 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless
- 1⁄2 cup butter, chilled
- 2 garlic cloves, finely minced
- 1 tablespoon cayenne
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 2 finely chopped scallions
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1⁄4 cup flour
- 1 1⁄2 cups desiccated coconut, unsweetened
- 1⁄2 cup unsalted butter, for frying
Directions
- Cut the butter into 4 - 2" x 1/2" pieces.
- In a small bowl, mix the garlic, cayenne, parsley, scallions, cumin and salt. Roll the pieces of butter in the spices until well coated.
- Flatten each chicken breast - between two sheets of waxed paper - to a thickness of 1/4" and cut each half in two. Place a wedge of seasoned butter in the centre. Roll each breast around the butter and tuck in the ends. Dust the rolled breast with flour, dip in the beaten egg, then in the coconut. Secure with cotton string or toothpicks.
- Heat butter over a medium heat, in a skillet until it foams. Fry the chicken rolls until golden, turning carefully. Transfer to a casserole and bake at 275° for 10-15 minutes.
