Chicken Kiev

* 4 boneless chicken breast halves

* 4 tablespoons butter, softened

* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

* 1/4 teaspoon white pepper, or black pepper

* 1/4 teaspoon salt

* 1/4 cup flour

* 1 egg, beaten with 2 teaspoons water

* 1/2 cup fine dry bread crumbs

Blend the softened butter with parsley, chives, pepper, and salt. Divide into 4 portions and chill until firm.

Flatten each chicken breast half to about 1/4-inch thickness by pounding each between wax paper or plastic wrap. Place a portion of the chilled butter mixture in the center of each flattened chicken breast half. Roll each to completely enclose the butter.

Dust each roll in flour then dip in beaten egg and water. Roll in bread crumbs then place in lightly greased baking dish. Cover and bake at 350° oven for 45 minutes.

Uncover and bake 15 minutes longer. Chicken Kiev serves 4.

"My grandmother used to make this when I was a kid, and I absolutely loved it. She immigrated from Ukraine when she was a teenager (to escape the Nazis). This isn't her exact recipe, but it's close."
