PERFECT CHICKEN KIEV
This cheesy Chicken Kiev is to die for! I serve it with broccoli rice au grain, nice crusty french bread, and a green salad. Whenever I go for a visit somewhere or offer to make someone dinner, this is what they ineviatbly request. Kids, husbands, and friends will love it!

- set aside.
- In the center of each chicken breats spread 1 tablespoon of the prepared herbed butter.
- Place 4 tablespoons of the shredded cheese (or as much as you can fit depending on the size of the breast. Get as much in as you can and still be able to roll it).
- in the center of the chicken breast You must now roll the chicken into little bundles; fold over slightly on both left and right sides while you roll from the bottom of breast to the top.
- The end product should be a tight little bundle so the cheese and butter do not leak out during baking.
- You can secure the seems of the bundles with toothpicks (just make sure to get them all out before you serve!) Melt 4 tablespoons of butter and place in a small bowl.
- Dip each bundle into the butter and then roll in the breadcrumb mix.
- You can repeat this step for an extra thick layer of crumbs.
- Place, seam side down, on a baking dish; cover with foil; refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best.
- Place in a preheated 350 Degree oven and bake for 35-45 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked.
- When checking the chicken, cut with kitchen knife, but be careful not to cut down to cheese inside or it will ooze out.
