Chicken rolls with cheese and walnuts
4 servings
30 minutes
Chicken rolls with cheese and walnuts are a harmony of flavors and textures. Tender chicken fillet infused with the aroma of nutmeg and black pepper envelops a juicy filling of Maasdam cheese, cream, and crunchy walnuts. This dish was born in a signature kitchen but is inspired by the traditions of European gastronomes, where meat rolls have long been considered a delicacy. Butter gives them a golden crust, while parsley adds a fresh flavor note. These rolls are perfect for a festive dinner or romantic evening, served with a light salad or grilled vegetables. Their tenderness combines with rich cheesy notes and a hint of nutty crunch, creating gastronomic pleasure in every bite.
