Chicken Provolone And Swiss Roulades Recipes

STEAK ROULADE WITH PROVOLONE

Steps:

• Combine 2 cups hot water and the tomato paste in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add the crushed tomatoes, red pepper flakes, sugar and basil and stir to combine. Cover and cook on high while you prepare the meat.
• Butterfly the steak: Slice in half horizontally, leaving 1 long side attached so you can open the steak like a book. Place between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound until about 1/4 inch thick. Remove the plastic; season the steak with salt and pepper. Scatter the provolone evenly over the steak, then top with the garlic, breadcrumbs, pecorino, raisins, pine nuts and parsley.
• Starting with a long side, tightly roll up the steak like a jelly roll. Secure with twine in several spots. Transfer to the slow cooker; reduce the heat to low, cover and cook 7 hours.
• Remove the meat to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes. Remove the twine, then slice 1 inch thick. Serve with polenta; top with more sauce from the slow cooker.

• Heat spinach in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Whisk eggs, Parmesan cheese, and milk together in a bowl.
• Stir egg mixture into the spinach; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Spread about 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of the spinach mixture onto each pounded chicken breast.
• Roll each breast into a cylinder shape, secure ends with toothpicks, and arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
• Sprinkle bread crumbs atop rolled chicken.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 45 minutes. Allow chicken to rest for several minutes before removing toothpicks and serving.

CHICKEN PROVOLONE

In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, cook chicken over medium heat until a thermometer reads 165°, 4-5 minutes on each side., Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet; top with the basil, prosciutto and cheese. Broil 6-8 in. from the heat until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes.

CHICKEN, HAM, AND CHEESE ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place cutlets on work surface, and season with salt and pepper.
• Spread cutlets with mustard; layer with 1 slice of ham and 2 strips of cheese. Starting at a short end, roll up cutlets; place, seam side down, on prepared baking sheet. Top each cutlet with 1 piece of remaining cheese; broil until browned and chicken is opaque throughout, 6 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring peas, butter, and 1 cup water to a boil. Remove from heat, and stir in couscous. Cover and let stand 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; fluff with a fork. Serve couscous with roll-ups.

CHICKEN ROULADES WITH ROASTED PEPPERS AND SOPPRESSATA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove tenders from chicken breasts and set aside. (Tenders are the small muscles running the length of the breast, about 1/2-inch in diameter, under each chicken breast half.) Place breasts skin-side-down on flat surface; flatten slightly with cleaver or mallet. Sprinkle with salt and freshly ground pepper. Cover chicken with overlapping slices of soppressata. Place roasted red pepper in center of chicken. Place chicken tender on top of pepper. Roll chicken breasts tight, jelly-roll style, to completely envelop the filling. Place roulades in shallow baking pan. Bake 25 minutes, then place under broiler for 30 seconds to crisp skin. Remove from oven, let rest 5 minutes. Cut each into 6 slices. Serve with pan juices immediately.

CHICKEN BACON ROULADES

Steps:

• cook bacon until lightly brown but still flexible (not crisp). remove from pan and let dry.
• Cook the shallots in the remaining bacon fat over low heat, stirring, until softened. Transfer shallots with a slotted spoon to a small bowl and leave any fat remaining in skillet. Preheat oven to 300°F.
• Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of plastic wrap. With smooth side of a meat pounder pound each breast to 1/8-inch thickness. Discard plastic from boned side of each breast. Sprinkle chicken with lemon pepper (or ground black pepper and a little lemon zest) and salt. Place 2 1/2 slices of bacon lengthwise (parallel with grain of flesh) along middle of each breast. Top with shallots and Parmesan. Using plastic wrap to help you, tightly roll up each breast lengthwise, tucking in the ends to enclose the filling. Secure seams with wooden toothpicks.
• Add 1 Tbsp olive oil to reserved fat in skillet and heat over medium high heat. Brown roulades on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer the skillet to middle of oven and bake roulades until just cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Transfer chicken to a plate with tongs and keep warm, covered with aluminum foil. Pour off fat from skillet. (Careful! The handle is hot, use an oven mitt.) Add wine to the skillet and deglaze over medium high heat, scraping up brown bits. Boil wine until reduced to about 1 tablespoon. Add garlic and butter. Cook mixture over medium low heat, stirring, for 1 minute. Add flour and cook roux, stirring, 1 minute. Add broth and cream and bring to a boil, whisking. Simmer the sauce, whisking, 2 minutes. Pour through a fine mesh sieve into a small saucepan. Keep sauce warm. Remove the wooden toothpicks from roulades and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices. Spoon some sauce in center of each of 4 plates and arrange roulade slices decoratively on sauce.
