CHICKEN KIEV

READ RECIPE FIRST AND MAKESURE YOU HAVE ALL YOUR INGREDIENTS ON THE COUNTER...put it all in little bowls all prepared, just like on TV. PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH THE DEEP FRYING...HOT OIL CAN AND WILL IGNITE AND CAUSES TERRIBLE BURNS!!!!

Here's the recipe:

Make a 1/4 lb of cannabudder -- that's 2 sticks of butter. Let cool in fridge.

Remove cannabudder from fridge and two sticks of good quality plain unsalted butter. Let soften to room temperature.

Add to this 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley, salt and pepper. Refrigerate this until firm enough to cut in chunks.

Pound 8 pieces of skinless boned chicken breasts OR skinless boned thigh meat with flat side of mallet. Heavy Ziploc plastic bags are great for this. Put chicken inside and pound to approximately 1/4 inch thick. If you don't have a mallet use a piece of 2x4...really, works great !

Fill with COLD butter mixture and roll as you would for stuffed cabbage, or a burrito, or a wonton. Be careful to overlap and completely enclose butter. Chicken will be sticky and you can seal the edges by working them with your fingers.

Beat 4 egg WHITES and 2 tablespoons milk.

Roll Kievs in plain bread crumbs, dip in egg white milk mixture, then roll in crumbs again. Coat well and refrigerate at least 20 minutes or until you are ready to fry.

You should deep fry these...that would be about 4" of oil in a DEEP HEAVY POT.

Use corn oil and do not get the oil too hot. 8-10 minutes should be sufficient. Fry to golden brown. Be careful not to over cook. Drain well.

Serve over rice or something else that can absorb all that butter and oil...

THIS IS NOT A RECIPE FOR THOSE WITH HEART CLOG PROBLEMS!
