There is a great variety. It is ideal for hot and cold appetizers, main courses, soups. You can list indefinitely. If you need something special, original, able to decorate the festive table and feed the most demanding gourmets, then chicken roll is what you need.

Snack

Chicken roll is an exquisite, even delicacy dish that can be served at the buffet table, it can whet the appetite of guests. So, let's figure out how to make a chicken roll so that it becomes a great start to a festive meal. The main ingredients you will need:

• chicken breasts;
• dried bacon;
• cheese "Gorgonzola";
• olive oil;
• colored bell pepper;
• seasonings: salt, white pepper, basil.

Cooking

Beat the chicken breasts so that their thickness is about 0.5 cm. Place thin slices of dried bacon and Gorgonzola cut into thin layers on them. Place bell pepper slices on top. Use two different color combinations. In this dish, green with yellow looks especially advantageous. Carefully roll up the resulting roll and secure with toothpicks. Drizzle it on top with olive oil and spices to taste. Now - in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees, for 40 minutes. Cut the finished dish into slices of medium thickness. You can submit! The chicken roll acquires a rich taste due to the fragrant Gorgonzola cheese. Instead, you can also use "DorBlue".

Main course

If the previous recipe was about gourmet appetizer with gourmet blue cheese, then the next one will tell you how to make chicken roll as a main hot dish. For it you will need (for four servings):

• chicken breasts (4 pieces);
• chicken legs (2 pieces);
• champignons (500 gr);
• tomatoes (4 medium fruits);
• cheese "Parmesan" (200 gr);
• chicken eggs (2 pieces);
• olive oil;
• spices: salt, pepper.

Cooking

Let's make the filling with which we will start the chicken roll. For her, the legs, previously smeared with salt and pepper, must be baked in the oven on a baking sheet at 200 degrees for 40 minutes. Let them cool, remove the meat from the bones and chop finely. Mix with finely chopped tomatoes and mushrooms. Add grated Parmesan on a coarse grater and pour the resulting mixture with raw eggs (this is necessary to "bind" the ingredients). Salt and pepper a little. Roll up the rolls, stab them with special skewers, brush with spices and olive oil. Wrap in foil and place in the oven at 180 degrees for 30 minutes. After this time, remove, remove the foil and, increasing the temperature to 220 degrees, return to bake until golden brown. This usually takes an average of 15 minutes. The dish is ready. It can be served with tender mashed potatoes sprinkled with fresh herbs. We recommend adding a little cream to the garnish for a richer taste and a pinch of basil for flavor. Now you know how to cook chicken roll and pamper your loved ones. We hope that this recipe will become your signature dish.

Chicken roll is a great substitute for store-bought sausage. Because it is not harmful, but very dietary. Especially if it is not baked in the oven, but steamed, as in this recipe. And one more thing: it is this version of the chicken roll (and I have prepared and tried them enough), with practically no additives, the simplest, I would call the basic recipe. So, the basic recipe is delicious and tender.

Ingredients

• chicken - 1 weighing about 1.5 -1.8 kg
• salt and pepper - to your taste
• mustard seeds - 2-3 tbsp. spoons
• garlic - 4-5 cloves
• gelatin - 20 grams

Cooking

Beat off all the pieces a little - give a more or less flat shape. But don't be too hard.

Very small pieces can be skipped, do not beat off.



In a bowl, mix all the other ingredients of the recipe: squeeze the garlic through a press,



salt and pepper, add mustard seeds.



Pour in the gelatin. Stir.



Put the prepared chicken pieces in another, spacious bowl. Put the spices here and mix thoroughly - all chicken pieces should get their “portion” of spices about the same.



Unscrew the cling film from the roll. Put the chicken meat with spices on it. And roll it up like a roll.

You need to roll tight enough.



Then, holding the ends of the film, twist it like a candy. As soon as a beautiful “candy” is formed, fasten the ends (you can tie a film into a knot, or you can tie it with threads).



It is better to cook diet chicken roll in a double boiler or in a pot of water over low heat. Cooking time about 1.5 hours. Then the roll must be cooled. And chilled put in the refrigerator overnight.

In the morning, remove all the film, cut the chicken roll and enjoy, for example, a delicious sandwich or just pieces of roll with vegetables.

ON A NOTE

If you add or replace spices, you get a different chicken roll - a different look, taste, with a different flavor. Experiment. For example, you can include cubes of bacon and ham in the roll; finely chopped fresh herbs, cubes of fresh sweet pepper, green peas, paprika, turmeric.

In addition, chicken roll can not be boiled, but baked in the oven until a good appetizing crust. But this is a separate culinary story.

AND SOME EMOTIONS

Chicken roll disappears from the refrigerator pretty quickly. Keep in mind this property. And do not be surprised that if you make a big chicken candy in the evening, you will not find it in the morning. Well, if the crumbs on the table tell about the fate of the roll, and if there are none, it means that it disappeared without a trace in one known direction.

But it will be later, first - cook a delicious chicken roll.

If the traditional fried chicken, which adorns the table with or without reason, is already a little boring, you can try to diversify the festive menu with much more interesting options for hot chicken dishes. This, for example, is the same baked chicken - but according to a completely new recipe, which involves stuffing the bird with buckwheat with mushrooms and fried onions. The filling itself is delicious, but the finished dish turns out so juicy and satisfying that you just lick your fingers! If you buy a whole chicken and mess with butchering the carcass - it's expensive and too time consuming, you can use the unusual recipe for "chicken with oranges" - baked chicken drumsticks, legs or thighs with a spicy citrus flavor and crispy crust look really festive. And, finally, on seasonal holidays, zucchini “medallions” with tender minced chicken can be an excellent addition to the menu.

An ideal ingredient for novice housewives, which allows you not to bother with butchering chicken and cook very quickly and easily - this is a tender chicken fillet that is almost impossible to spoil under any circumstances. There are a great many recipes for festive chicken fillet dishes: for example, the original “chicken pizza” without dough or marinated in soy sauce, fried chicken fillet with apple sauce, which is prepared from fresh apples, lemon juice and a small amount of white wine. For a children's holiday or for gourmet adults, a homemade version of the famous "nuggets" is suitable - pieces of chicken fillet fried in flour breading and sprinkled with sesame seeds.

Holiday Chicken Roll Recipes

A long time ago, chicken roll migrated from Western European cuisine to our kitchen - a dish that is both tasty, satisfying, and low-calorie, in a word, ideal for an everyday or holiday menu. There are several dozen recipes for chicken roll - from simple to the most complex. So, for example, from chicken fillet, gelatin and various spices, you can cook the Marble roll - you get a delicious, spectacular snack for the festive table. A very interesting option is a chicken roll stuffed with an omelet, which can replace the usual cold cuts (and will be much more useful). And after spending a little more time, it will be possible to cook a chicken roll with egg and green beans - a truly tasty and versatile dish that can be served hot for a second course, and cold for a snack.

In different cuisines of the world, there are also recipes for chicken roll - and sometimes very unusual ones. So, for example, on the festive table you can cook a Japanese-style roll - the most delicious, juicy, slightly gelled, with a spicy aftertaste of soy sauce. For lovers of European (and, in particular, Italian) cuisine or those who are used to watching their weight - Ligurian chicken broccoli roll, the dish is amazingly tender, almost airy, and low in calories. But for those who can afford not to count calories at the festive table, we can recommend a delicious (although perhaps a little greasy) chicken roulade with garlic in a ham “fur coat”.

Cold holiday chicken appetizers

In the summer, when hot dishes for the holiday seem to be something completely optional, you can treat your guests to a variety of cold chicken appetizers. The simplest option is chicken aspic: it can be cooked in a slow cooker or in the traditional way - from broth, in shape. However, such aspic cannot be called traditional - thanks to broccoli and other vegetables, an original “picture” is obtained on the cut.

The simplest, but no less tasty cold appetizer - tartlets with chicken and cucumber. If there are no tartlets, they can be replaced with "home-made" baskets from thin Armenian pita bread, and you can prepare any filling - for example, chicken fillet with tomatoes and cheese. And experienced cooks can recommend chicken terrine - a simple and budgetary dish, but it will look beautiful on the festive table. The recipe is universal: the vegetables in the composition can be changed depending on your own preferences. And the only condition is to serve the terrine cold so that the dish does not “blur”.

Hot chicken appetizers for the festive table

Hot chicken appetizers for the festive table should be served almost immediately after preparation - and therefore most of these recipes are extremely simple and require very little time. Spicy snack chicken “sticks” are very tasty - such an appetizer will always be in great demand, regardless of the occasion. And the snack "Reeds" from chicken fillet with cheese and herbs is not only tasty, but also original - really similar to reeds. It will take a little more time to cook miniature chicken “skewers” ​​in bacon in the oven, but the result will be worth it - thanks to the delicate cherry-mint sauce with hints of lime, the finished dish turns out to be deliciously spicy in taste.

As a kind of "buffet" snack from tender chicken fillet, you can cook miniature chicken "fingers" - rolls with cheese filling, or original snack "muffins" - they look almost like real muffins, only they are made from minced chicken with vegetables. And one of the least labor-intensive options for a hot appetizer with chicken meat is stuffed tomatoes baked in the oven (you can stuff them with fried fillet pieces and croutons from a couple of slices of wheat bread).

On the New Year's holiday table, several hot dishes and many cold snacks are served. Meat snacks take up more space and are more popular than fish. How to cook a cold New Year's chicken fillet appetizer, recipes for chicken roll with pistachios and prunes for the New Year's table, read and see below.
