Ingredients
- 150 g Quark
- 2 fillets Chicken breast
- 1 tbsp Lemon zest
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
- Lay the chicken breasts flat on a cutting board and use a knife to carefully butterfly each breast, making sure not to cut all the way through.
- Mix quark with lemon zest, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- Spread the quark mixture evenly inside the opened chicken breasts, then roll them up tightly and secure each with toothpicks.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roulades until golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
- Transfer the seared roulades to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into medallions and serve warm.
