Chicken Kiev is a classic dish with a rich history and variations. It is believed to have originated in the early 1900s and has since become popular worldwide. The traditional recipe involves pounding chicken breasts flat, filling them with butter, herbs, and garlic, then breading and frying them until golden brown. However, many modern interpretations of Chicken Kiev exist, including baked and air-fried versions. This article provides three delectable Chicken Kiev recipes that cater to different preferences and dietary needs:

1. **Classic Chicken Kiev:** This recipe stays true to the traditional method, using pounded chicken breasts filled with a flavorful combination of butter, herbs, and garlic. The chicken is then breaded and fried until crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.

2. **Baked Chicken Kiev:** For those seeking a healthier alternative, this recipe offers a baked version of Chicken Kiev. Chicken breasts are stuffed with the same delicious filling as the classic recipe but are then coated in breadcrumbs and baked in the oven until cooked through. This method results in a crispy crust and succulent chicken without the added fat from frying.

3. **Air-Fried Chicken Kiev:** This recipe combines the convenience of air frying with the indulgence of Chicken Kiev. Chicken breasts are filled with the classic filling and coated in breadcrumbs before being cooked in an air fryer. This method yields a crispy coating and tender chicken while minimizing the amount of oil used.

Whether you prefer the traditional fried version, the healthier baked option, or the convenient air-fried method, these three Chicken Kiev recipes provide a delightful culinary experience that will satisfy your cravings for this iconic dish.

Time 1h2m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

⅓ cup butter
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 eggs
3 tablespoons water
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
¾ cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup dry bread crumbs
2 cups vegetable oil for frying
½ lemon, sliced
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Combine 1/3 cup butter, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. On a 6x6 inch piece of aluminum foil, spread mixture to about 2x3 inches. Place this mixture in the coldest section of your freezer and freeze until firm. This can be done ahead of time.
  • Remove all fat from the chicken breast. If using whole chicken breasts, cut them in half. Place each chicken breast half between 2 pieces of waxed paper and using a mallet, pound carefully to about 1/4 inch thickness or less.
  • When butter mixture is firm, remove from freezer and cut into 6 equal pieces. Place one piece of butter on each chicken breast. Fold in edges of chicken and then roll to encase the butter completely. Secure the chicken roll with small skewers or toothpicks.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat eggs with water until fluffy. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, dill weed and flour. Coat the chicken well with the seasoned flour. Dip the floured chicken in the egg mixture and then roll in the bread crumbs. Place coated chicken on a shallow tray and chill in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • In a medium size deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil to medium-high. Fry chicken for about 5 minutes then turn over and fry for 5 minutes longer or until the chicken is golden brown. To test for doneness, cut into one of the rolled chicken breasts to make sure it doesn't have a pink interior. Serve immediately, garnished with a sliced lemon twist and a sprinkling or parsley.

Time 1h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, pounded to 1/4-inch thickness
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups panko bread crumbs
1 pinch cayenne pepper
2 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Grind garlic and a pinch of salt together in a mortar and pestle until garlic is completely smashed. Add parsley and mix until completely incorporated. Pound butter into garlic mixture with pestle until parsley and garlic are fully incorporated into the butter. Wrap the butter mixture in plastic wrap and refrigerate until cold, at least 15 minutes.
  • Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Place 1/4 the butter mixture in the center of wider end of each chicken breast. Fold the narrower end of each chicken breast up over the butter to form a tight pocket around the butter. Gather the sides of each chicken breast to the center to form a round ball. The top of the chicken will be smooth and the bottom will be gathered. Tightly wrap each chicken breast ball in plastic wrap, put wrapped breasts on a plate, and chill in the freezer until the gathered bottoms hold together and are slightly firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Whisk flour and 2 teaspoons salt together in a shallow bowl. Whisk eggs together in another shallow bowl. Pour panko bread crumbs into another bowl.
  • Remove chicken breast balls from plastic wrap. Gently press each chicken breast ball into flour mixture to coat and shake off any excess flour. Dip into beaten eggs, then press into bread crumbs. Place breaded chicken onto a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and return to the freezer to chill until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Working in batches, cook chicken, gathered-side down, in hot oil and until lightly golden on both sides, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle salt and cayenne pepper over the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until you can hear the butter start to sizzle on the baking sheet, 15 to 17 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh tarragon
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
6 small skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 2 1/4 pounds)
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 cups panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Mix the butter, tarragon, parsley, chives, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Scoop the mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper and roll into a 1-inch-thick log. Wrap and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.
  • Slice the frozen butter into 6 equal pieces. Lay a chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or 2 large resealable plastic bags; pound to 1/4 inch thick with a heavy skillet or mallet. Transfer to a clean piece of plastic wrap and season with salt and pepper. Put a piece of herbed butter in the center of the chicken; using the plastic wrap as an aid, tightly roll up the chicken starting at a long side, tucking in the short sides as you go. Tightly wrap the chicken roll in plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining chicken and butter. Refrigerate the rolls at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Put the flour in a shallow dish. Whisk the eggs and mustard in another shallow dish. Put the panko in a third dish. Unwrap the chicken rolls and generously season with salt and pepper. One at a time, dredge the chicken rolls in the flour, then dip in the egg mixture and roll in the panko to coat.
  • Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken rolls in 2 batches, turning, until golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the prepared rack and bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
