# Ingredients:
→ Chicken
01 -
200 g chicken fillets, thinly sliced
→ Filling
02 -
2 tablespoons minced red pepper
03 -
1 tablespoon minced garlic
04 -
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
→ Seasoning and Serving
05 -
Salt to taste
06 -
Black pepper to taste
07 -
Olive oil for grilling
08 -
Mixed greens (lettuce, spring onion, young garlic), for serving
# Instructions:
01 -
Slice chicken fillets into thin, even pieces. Flatten each slice to ensure an even thickness to facilitate rolling and uniform cooking.
02 -
Combine minced red pepper, garlic, and chopped parsley in a bowl. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, stirring thoroughly to form a cohesive filling.
03 -
Lay each chicken slice flat and evenly spread a portion of filling over the surface. Roll the chicken tightly around the filling and secure if necessary.
04 -
Lightly brush the rolled chicken bites with olive oil to ensure a golden crust during cooking.
05 -
Heat a grill pan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Place the chicken rolls seam-side down and cook, turning occasionally, until all sides turn golden brown and the interior is fully cooked, about 8–10 minutes. Finish in the oven if needed for additional tenderness.
06 -
Arrange the cooked chicken bites on a platter with mixed greens. Serve immediately with a side of garlic aioli or zesty tomato sauce if desired.
# Notes:
01 -
Thin, even chicken slices ensure uniform rolls and consistent cooking throughout each bite.
02 -
Allowing the rolled chicken to rest before serving helps retain juices and enhances flavor.
03 -
For an attractive presentation, serve with a variety of colorful mixed greens.
