The Gourmet Butcher's Chicken Roulades Version #1: Apple Cranberry
Ingredients
One half-breast GOOD chicken per person (something like Bell& Evans)
1/2 a red apple- not too sweet
Buttermilk for dipping
Breadcrumbs for coating
Preparation
1
Take half a chicken breast and butterfly it open.
2
On one side of the butterflied breast, lay down two slices of Vermont Cabot cheddar cheese.
3
Sliver about half a red apple, skin and all (you want an apple that’s both sweet and tart).
4
Take some juice-sweetened cranberries or craisins, wad them up in your hand so they form a tight little ball and set those on top of the apples (how much exactly? enough to fit into the palm of your hand).
7
Dip into buttermilk.
8
Roll in unflavored breadcrumbs (I like to make my own, but you don't have to).
9
Bake in a 350 degree F oven for about half an hour.
10
Option: spread some orange marmalade over breasts just before baking.
