How to Make Cherry Chicken Rolls with a Distinctive Flavor

Method for Preparing Cherry Chicken Roll:

You can use either the chicken breast or fillet in two ways. Either pound the chicken fillet thin, marinate, fill it with the ingredients, and roll it up, or you can use a mixture of boneless chicken breast and thighs, grind it in a food processor or meat grinder, and then mix it with salt, black pepper, saffron, and lemon juice. Let it marinate in the fridge for an hour.

Pit the cherries and cook them in a pot with a little sugar and salt for 10 minutes until they release their juice. Then, separate the cherries from the thickened juice, which will be used for the sauce. Chop the walnuts to your desired size.

Finely slice the onion and sauté it in a pan with a bit of oil until it softens. Add the cherries and walnuts, and sauté for a bit until the ingredients are well combined. Remove the chicken mixture from the fridge, and lay a sheet of cling film on a flat surface. Spread the ground chicken mixture over the cling film.

Shape the chicken into a rectangle, place the cherry mixture in the center, and roll it up. Tie the ends of the roll with the cling film and refrigerate it for 2 hours to set. Then, heat some oil in a pan over low heat and fry the roll until it’s evenly browned on all sides. Finally, pour the saffron sauce and cherry sauce over the roll and serve.

Enjoy your Cherry Chicken Roll!
