Quick Chicken Kiev
“I make these pretty chicken breasts all the time and just love the taste,” writes Dorothy LaCombe of Hamburg, New York. “Because they’re microwaved, they’re ready to serve in no time.”
4 Servings
Prep/Total Time: 30 min.
Ingredients
5 tablespoons butter, softened,
divided
1/2 teaspoon minced chives
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces
each
)
1/3 cup cornflake crumbs
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Directions
In a small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons butter, chives, garlic powder
and pepper; shape into four cubes. Cover and freeze until firm,
about 10 minutes.
Flatten chicken breast halves to 1/4-in. thickness. Place a butter
cube in the center of each. Fold long sides over butter; fold ends
up and secure with a toothpick.
In a shallow bowl, combine the cornflakes, Parmesan cheese, parsley
and paprika. Melt remaining butter. Dip chicken into butter; coat
evenly with cornflake mixture. Place seam side down in a
microwave-safe dish.
Microwave, uncovered, on high for 5-6 minutes or until chicken juices
run clear and a meat thermometer reads 170°. Remove toothpicks.
Drizzle chicken with pan drippings if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
