Method

  1. 1

    Mix the softened butter with the garlic and parsley, roll into a small log and chill in the freezer for 5 minutes to firm up.

  2. 2

    Place the butter in the centre of the flattened chicken breast and roll up tightly to enclose it, securing with a cocktail stick.

  3. 3

    Coat the chicken parcel in flour, then beaten egg, then breadcrumbs.

  4. 4

    Heat the oil in an ovenproof pan and brown the chicken on all sides, 3–4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Transfer to a 200C (fan 180C) oven for 10–12 minutes until cooked through.

  6. 6

    Taste and adjust the seasoning.

  7. 7

    Rest for 2 minutes before cutting, and serve with a green salad.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 30 g parsley and 120 g chicken breast. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
