Chicken rolls with pepper are an exquisite dish of Russian cuisine that combines tender chicken fillet with a spicy filling of cheese, bell pepper, and aromatic herbs. The origins of the recipe are linked to the tradition of baking meat in foil to preserve its juiciness and rich flavor. The tenderness of the chicken is highlighted by the creamy texture of yogurt, while crunchy sesame seeds add a refined touch. The rolls are baked in the oven, acquiring a golden crust and appetizing aroma. This dish is perfect for both family dinners and festive gatherings, delighting guests not only with its taste but also with its impressive presentation. The ideal combination of ingredients makes chicken rolls a versatile choice for lovers of aromatic and rich meat dishes.
