Ingredients

• 2 pieces Chicken breasts
• 100 grams Unsalted butter
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 50 grams Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 pieces Eggs
• 100 grams Gluten-free breadcrumbs
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the garlic herb butter: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped dill, chopped parsley, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.

Step 2

Place the butter mixture on a small piece of plastic wrap and shape it into a log. Wrap tightly and place in the freezer to harden for 15-20 minutes.

Step 3

Prepare the chicken: Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.

Step 4

Remove the hardened butter from the freezer and cut it into two equal portions. Insert a portion into each chicken breast pocket.

Step 5

Seal the edges of the chicken breasts using toothpicks to ensure the butter stays inside during cooking.

Step 6

In a shallow dish, place the gluten-free flour. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. In a third shallow dish, spread the gluten-free breadcrumbs.

Step 7

Dip each chicken breast first into the flour, then the beaten eggs, and finally coat with the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even cover on all sides.

Step 8

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.

Step 9

Add the coated chicken breasts and cook on each side until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side.

Step 10

Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).

Step 11

Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve the Gluten-Free Kyiv Cutlet hot, with your choice of side dishes such as mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad.
