Cooking method
-
Step 1:
How do you bake chicken roulades with mushrooms? To make these juicy, tasty chicken roulades, gather your ingredients. You can use ready-cut skinless breast portions. If you have a whole bone-in breast, cut the meat off the bone and remove the skin.
-
Step 2:
Rinse and pat the chicken dry. Butterfly each breast: make a deep lengthwise cut down the middle, stopping short of the far edge, and open it out like a book.
-
Step 3:
Cover the breast with plastic wrap or a plastic bag and pound it to an even slab about 1/4 inch (5 mm) thick, taking care not to tear it — there shouldn't be any holes for the juices to run out or the filling to fall through. A rolling pin works well in place of a meat mallet.
-
Step 4:
Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and your chicken seasoning, and let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes.
-
Step 5:
While the chicken marinates, make the filling.
-
Step 6:
Cut the mushrooms into small, thin slices.
-
Step 7:
Seed and stem the bell pepper and cut it lengthwise into thin strips.
-
Step 8:
Grate the cheese on the coarse side of a grater.
-
Step 9:
Finely chop the garlic and herbs.
-
Step 10:
Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet and sauté the mushrooms until golden.
-
Step 11:
Add the garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together. Take the skillet off the heat and let the filling cool.
-
Step 12:
To cool the mushrooms faster, transfer them to a bowl.
-
Step 13:
Add the grated cheese to the cooled filling and mix.
-
Step 14:
Spread the cheese-and-mushroom filling evenly over each breast, leaving a border around the edges.
-
Step 15:
Lay 5 or 6 strips of bell pepper down the center.
-
Step 16:
Roll each breast up into a tight roulade. Shape the rest the same way. To be safe, you can tie the roulades with kitchen twine.
-
Step 17:
Wrap each roulade tightly in foil.
-
Step 18:
Place the roulades in a baking dish or on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in an oven preheated to 400°F (200°C) for about 30 to 35 minutes. If your oven has a conventional top-and-bottom heat setting, that's the one to use. If you like, you can unwrap the foil, brush the roulades with a little oil, and broil them until golden.
-
Step 19:
Unwrap the finished roulades from the foil, let them cool slightly, and slice them into rounds. Serve them hot with a side dish, or cold as an appetizer. Enjoy!
- Keep in mind that every oven is different, so your temperature and cooking time may vary a little from what's given here. Get to know your own oven for the best results with any baked dish.
- Since everyone's tolerance for salt, sweetness, heat, and acidity is different, always season to your own taste. If you're using a spice for the first time, go easy — some, like chili pepper, are easy to overdo.
- Every oil is only healthy up to its smoke point — the temperature at which it starts to burn and form harmful compounds. Choose an oil with a high smoke point for frying so it stays stable over the heat.
