From Sunset's "Easy Basics for Good Cooking" cookbook. I can't roll these to save my life, but even the hideous monstrosities I end up making still taste delicious. (Prep time includes 4 hour refrigeration... which I never do.)

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 4h50m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup fine dry breadcrumb
1/2 cup finely grated parmesan cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 tablespoons softened butter
1 tablespoon parsley
4 ounces monterey jack cheese, cut into 8 strips (each 1/2 inch thick and 1 1/2 inch long)
5 tablespoons melted butter

Steps:

  • Flatten chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thick (place one at a time between two sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap and gently pound with the flat side of a mallet).
  • Combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, 1 teaspoon of the oregano, garlic salt, and pepper in rimmed plate or pie pan.
  • Stir together the 4 tablespoons softened butter, parsley and remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano in small bowl.
  • Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of the herb-butter mixture across each breast about an inch from the lower edge.
  • Lay a strip of the jack cheese over butter mixture.
  • Fold lower edge of breast over filling, then fold in sides and roll up to enclose filling.
  • Dip each bundle in the melted butter and drain briefly.
  • Roll in bread crumb mixture until evenly coated.
  • Place bundles, seam side down, without touching, in a 9 by 13 inch baking pan.
  • Drizzle with any remaining butter.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until next day (I never do this).
  • Bake, uncovered, in a preheated 425 oven for 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink when lightly slashed (cut just a small slash so filling doesn't ooze out).
