22. *Ask butcher to butterfly the breasts into large cutlets for you.
23. This is a real time-saver!
24. If a butcher is not available to you, cut into each breast from the fatter side and work across the breast, leaving them attached at the opposite side.
25. Open the breast up and pound lightly with a mallet to about a 1/4-inch thickness.
26. Also, in many supermarkets chicken cutlets are available in packages.
27. They are small pieces of thinly sliced breast meat.
28. Simply adapt the method and make 2 small roll-ups rather than 1 large roll up per portion.
