Stuffed & Rolled Roast Chicken image

We got this recipe from the West Australian Newspaper (with a couple of changes we made ourselves). It is stuffed roast chicken with a twist, you use a fully boned chicken and roll it up around the stuffing. Great for a picnic as you cook it the night before and have it cold. The original recipe requires a handful of mint and 2 roasted and peeled red capsicum, we don't like these so we took out the mint and substituted sundried tomatoes for the capsicum. If you want to put in the mint it goes in with the breadcrumb mixture.

1 7/8 kg chicken, fully boned
150 g sourdough breadcrumbs

2 tablespoons sour cream
1 eggplant, sliced and grilled
100 g prosciutto, sliced
25 -50 g sun-dried tomatoes (Adjust to suit your taste)

  • Lay the prosciutto slices over the top, followed by the sundried tomato.
  • Form a log with the fetta and parsley and put it down the centre of the chicken.
  • Roll the chicken to form a big log (basically fold in half), tuck in the ends and secure with wooden skewers.
