Ingredients

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).
  2. 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.
  3. Mix quark with lemon zest, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  4. Spread the quark mixture evenly inside the opened chicken breasts, then roll them up tightly and secure each with toothpicks.
  5. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the roulades until golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes.
  6. Transfer the seared roulades to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
  7. Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into medallions and serve warm.
