Garlic Chicken Kiev
- 3 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 18 teaspoon garlic powder (I prefer adding very finely minced fresh garlic cloves)
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, about 1 1/2 pounds
- 2 cups corn flakes cereal, crushed (about 1 cup when crushed)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 12 teaspoon paprika
- 14 cup low-fat buttermilk or 14 cup skim milk
- Mix butter, chives and garlic powder (or minced garlic); shape into 3x2" rectangle.
- Cover and freeze about 30 minutes or until firm.
- Heat oven to 425F Spray 9x9x2" square baking pan with cooking spray.
- Flatten each chicken breast half to 1/4" thickness between plastic wrap or waxed paper.
- Cut chives mixture crosswise into 6 pieces.
- Place 1 piece on center of each chicken breast half.
- Fold long sides of chicken over chives mixture; fold up ends and secure with toothpick.
- Mix cereal, parsley and paprika.
- (I also like to add white pepper to this mixture)
- Dip chicken into buttermilk, then coat lightly and evenly with cereal mixture.
- Place chicken, seam sides down, in prepared pan.
- Bake, uncovered, about 35 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
- Be careful when you cut into the chicken as the butter may squirt unceremoniously over yourself or other guests.
