Chicken rolls filled with savory garlic herb butter for ultimate moistness and juiciness.
Ingredients:
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped fresh continental parsley
  • 1 small garlic clove, crushed
  • 40g butter, at room temperature
  • 4 (about 500g) chicken thigh fillets, excess fat trimmed
  • 4 bacon rashers, rind removed
  • 4.60 gm olive oil
  • 4 carrots, peeled, cut into thick matchsticks
  • 14.40 gm honey
  • 250ml (1 cup) chicken style liquid stock
  • 190g (1 cup) couscous
Instructions:
  • Mix fresh parsley, minced garlic, and 30g of butter in a small bowl. Lay the chicken thighs flat on a clean surface, spread the butter mixture inside, and roll them up to trap the flavors. Wrap each thigh with a strip of bacon and secure with toothpicks.
  • In a spacious non-stick skillet, warm the oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken, turning regularly, for 15 minutes until fully cooked.
  • Boil the carrots in hot water for 3-4 minutes until tender. Drain the carrots and put them back in the saucepan. Add honey and the rest of the butter, then toss to coat evenly.
  • 1. In a saucepan, bring the stock to a boil. 2. Place the couscous in a heatproof bowl and pour the boiling stock over it. 3. Cover the bowl and let it sit for 5 minutes. 4. Fluff the couscous with a fork to separate the grains.
  • Remove the toothpicks from the chicken slices. Divide the couscous and carrot among serving plates, then top with the chicken. Drizzle the juices over to serve.
