Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 100g unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 cups breadcrumbs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. In a bowl, mix the softened butter with garlic, parsley, dill, and lemon juice. Place the mixture on a piece of plastic wrap, shape it into a log, and freeze for 30 minutes.
  3. While the butter is chilling, prepare the chicken breasts by placing them between two sheets of plastic wrap and pounding them to an even thickness.
  4. Remove the butter from the freezer and cut it into slices. Place a slice in the center of each chicken breast and fold the edges over to seal.
  5. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, then dip in the beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
  6. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and fry the chicken until golden brown on both sides.
  7. Transfer the fried chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
  8. Let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding herbs like thyme or tarragon to the butter mixture.
  • Ensure the chicken is sealed well to prevent the butter from leaking during cooking.
