Crumbed Fried Chicken Rolls Recipe

Summary

Main Ingredient

Ingredients

 Butter stick/Margarine1 1/2
 6 whole chicken breasts
 Parsley4 Tablespoon, finely chopped
 Sugar1/2 Teaspoon
 Eggs2
 1 cup fine dry bread crumbs
 Salt1 Teaspoon
 Pepper1/8 Teaspoon
 Shortening or salad oil for frying

Directions

1. Cut the butter or margarine into 12 even-length sticks; chill in freezer while fixing chicken, for butter should be very cold.
2.Pull skin from the chicken breasts; halve breasts and cut meat in one piece from bones. Place each half, boned side up, between waxed paper and pound very thin with a mallet or rolling pin to form a "cutlet." (Do not pound holes in meat.)
3. Place 1 piece very cold butter or margarine, 1 teaspoon parsley and a dash of the sugar on end of each cutlet; fold sides over to seal in butter, then roll up. Hold in place with wooden picks.
4. Beat eggs slightly in a pie plate; mix bread crumbs, salt and pepper in a second pie plate. Dip stuffed rolls in egg, then in crumb mixture to coat well. Chill at least an hour. (This much can be done ahead.)
5. When ready to fry, melt enough shortening or pour in enough salad oil to make a 2-inch depth in an electric deep-fat fryer or large saucepan; heat to 350°.
6. Fry rolls, 3 or 4 at a time and turning often, 7 minutes, or until tender and crisply golden. Lift out with a slotted spoon; drain well. Keep hot until all rolls are cooked.
