Scale
For Chicken Rolls:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
For Fresh Salad:
- 2 cups mixed greens (lettuce, spinach, arugula)
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure your chicken cooks evenly.
- Prepare the chicken: Flatten the chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thickness using a meat mallet. This helps in even cooking and easy rolling.
- Season the chicken: Mix salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Sprinkle this mixture evenly on both sides of the chicken breasts.
- Add fillings: Sprinkle grated cheese and chopped parsley over one side of each chicken breast.
- Roll the chicken: Carefully roll up the chicken breasts and secure them with toothpicks.
- Cook the chicken: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sear the chicken rolls until golden brown, then transfer them to a baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.
- Prepare the salad: Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl. Toss with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, then season with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes. Remove the toothpicks, slice the rolls, and serve with the fresh salad on the side.
