Chicken Kiev

"Chicken Kiev is a dish consisting of a boneless chicken breast wrapped around a piece of herbed/seasoned butter, breaded and deep fried. Here's a recipe for the real deal. Say 'da' and enjoy!"

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup butter 
• 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley 
• 1/2 tablespoon chopped fresh chives 
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice 
• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 
• salt and pepper to taste 
• 2 cups dried bread crumbs 
• 3 eggs, lightly beaten 
• 3 tablespoons water 
• 2 quarts vegetable oil for frying 

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the butter/margarine, parsley, chives and lemon juice. Blend all together and refrigerate.
Place chicken breasts between 2 pieces of wax paper and pound well to flatten. Remove paper and season breasts with salt and pepper to taste.
Remove seasoned butter from refrigerator and divide it into 6 portions. Place one portion in the center of each chicken breast. Fold the short ends of the breasts into the center, then fold in the sides. Secure each breast with a wooden toothpick.
Add the water to the eggs and beat together. Coat each rolled breast with bread crumbs, dip into egg/water mixture, then into bread crumbs again, coating well. Chill breasts for one hour.
In a deep fryer, heat oil to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C). Carefully lower breasts into hot oil. Fry for 8 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper toweling and serve.
