Homemade chicken roll is a cozy and hearty dish of European cuisine that combines simplicity in preparation and richness of flavors. Crispy chicken fillet with a tender omelet, fresh vegetables, and a spicy sauce is carefully wrapped in thin Armenian lavash. Mustard adds a slight spiciness, while hard cheese gives a pleasant creamy note. It’s an ideal option for a quick snack or a filling lunch that you can take with you. The homemade roll differs from restaurant versions with its softer and more harmonious taste due to fresh ingredients. Its history originates from the popularity of fast-food chicken rolls adapted for home cooking with healthier ingredients and the possibility to experiment with fillings. Enjoy every juicy bite!
