👨‍🍳 Method

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Cut the chicken into thin slices and roll them out between two plastic bags.

  3. 3
    Mix the cheese with the garlic, parsley, salt and black pepper.
    Bowl
  4. 4
    Place a spoonful of filling at the edge of each slice, roll up into a log and secure with the toothpicks.

  5. 5
    Heat the olive oil in a skillet and brown the rolls on all sides.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveFrying pan
    💡What you brown (meat, patties, schnitzel) goes into hot oil: in lukewarm oil it soaks it up and comes out greasy. For onion and garlic that you soften, oil heated over medium or low heat is enough; do not wait for it to smoke.
  6. 6
    Transfer the rolls to a baking dish.

  7. 7
    Roast the rolls in a hot oven (180°C / 355°F) about 20 minutes, until the chicken is golden and cooked.
