Made Chicken de volaille (aka Chicken Kyiv) this past weekend.
"Dewolaj" is a traditional Polish dish consisting of breaded and fried chicken breast wrapped around herb butter. Getting a good wrap, preventing the butter fron leaking out during cooking is the tricky part. Some recipes use cheese with, or in place of the butter.
1 - Prepare the butter. Mix parsley, garlic, and salt with butter. Roll it i to a log, and refrigerate.
2 - Smash the chicken breast. It needs to be very thin. Use a meat mallet or cast iron pan.
3 - Salt and pepper the chicken and place a chunk of butter on it.
4 - Wrap
5 - Put plastic wrap around the roll, and refrigerate.
6 - Bread it. I use a 5 step process here. A) roll in flour, B) wet with egg, C) roll in bread crumbs, D) wet with eggs again E) roll in a second layer of bread crumbs
7 - Fry till golden. Finish in the oven
8 - Enjoy. I served this with beets and Kopytka. The Kopytka was pan fried in butter after boiling.
