Homemade chicken kiev

This simple recipe is so much better than shop-bought versions of the seventies classic.

Ingredients

For the chicken kiev
4 x 175g/6oz chicken breasts, skin removed
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 lemon, juice only
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon
230g/8oz butter, slightly softened
2 tbsp plain flour
1 free-range egg, beaten
10-12 tbsp fresh breadcrumbs
olive oil, for frying
For the rice
250g/9oz cooked white and wild rice (from a packet of mixed white and wild rice)
100g/3½oz bacon lardons, fried until crisp
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
100g/3½oz pine nuts, toasted
2 tbsp melted butter

Method

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
For the chicken kiev, slice a piece out of the centre of the chicken breast to make a pocket using a sharp knife. Place the garlic, lemon juice, salt and freshly ground black pepper, tarragon and butter into a bowl and mix well. Stuff this mixture into the pocket in the chicken breasts.
Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour, then dip into the beaten egg, then the breadcrumbs to coat completely, shaking off any excess.
Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan and fry the chicken breasts on all sides until lightly browned. Transfer to the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden-brown and completely cooked through.
For the rice, place all the rice ingredients into a bowl and mix well. Pack the rice mixture into four cups or ramekins.
To serve, turn the rice out onto serving plates with the chicken kiev alongside.

Chicken Kiev

Chicken Kiev This dish is completely scrumptious but I mean how could it not be? It has everything you need, it’s got perfectly tender chicken, a crisp exterior, and a savory molten interior. This meal packs quite a hit in ways that are deeply satisfying and completely drool worthy. After you eat this chicken, I’m warning you you may need to take a nap. Oh yeah it’s one of those meals, one that just hits the spot in both flavor and how completely rich and filling it is. So let’s get into it, while this dinner requires just a smidge more effort than some of my easier meals, it’s worth it, trust me. Hails from Eastern Europe, specifically places like Russia, Ukraine, and Poland. Chicken breast is pounded out, stuffed with a garlic herb compound butter, coated with eggs and breadcrumbs, and eventually fried and/or baked. The best part of this chicken truly is the filling. You roll the flattened chicken around some garlic herb compound butter and it melts when heated up in the ove...
