To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup of breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh basil
- 1/4 cup of chopped fresh oregano
- 1/4 cup of chopped sun-dried tomatoes
- 1/4 cup of chopped Kalamata olives
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup of olive oil
- 1/2 cup of chicken broth
- 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter
- Lemon slices and fresh parsley for garnish
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Butterfly the chicken breasts by slicing them horizontally, but not all the way through. Open the chicken breasts like a book and pound them with a meat mallet until they are even in thickness.
In a bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, parsley, basil, oregano, sun-dried tomatoes, Kalamata olives, salt, and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll up the chicken breasts tightly and secure them with toothpicks.
Dredge the chicken roulades in flour, then dip them in the beaten eggs. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken roulades and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken roulades to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is baking, make the lemon butter sauce. In a small saucepan, heat the chicken broth and lemon juice over medium heat. Add the butter and whisk until melted and combined. Keep the sauce warm until ready to serve.
To serve, remove the toothpicks from the chicken roulades and slice them into rounds. Drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the chicken and garnish with lemon slices and fresh parsley.
Stuffed Chicken Roulades with Lemon Butter Sauce is a mouthwatering dish that is perfect for any special occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, while the stuffing is packed with flavor. The tangy lemon butter sauce adds a bright and zesty note to the dish. This dish is perfect for a romantic dinner or a dinner party with friends and family.
