Chicken roulade in pomegranate jelly

180 min4 serv.21 февр. 2026 г.

Description

The recipe won't take much time. You'll need fresh pomegranate juice; it's easy to make—firmly squeeze the pomegranate on all sides with your hands, then make a hole and squeeze out the juice. One large pomegranate can yield up to 300 ml of juice! If you don't have a fresh pomegranate, don't worry—you can always buy a juice packet and make jelly from it. Good luck. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.

    Step 1

    Step 1

    So, prepare the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Step 2

    Step 2

    Cut very carefully away the bones and meat so that a thin layer of fillet remains on the chicken skin. Try not to damage the skin.

  3. 3

    Step 3

    Step 3

    Pound the meat well with a mallet, salt it, sprinkle with herbes de Provence or other favorite spices, and arrange in overlapping layers so the roll does not fall apart during baking.

  4. 4

    Step 4

    Step 4

    Wash the leeks, slice the light part into rings, and sauté in olive oil until soft.

  5. 5

    Step 5

    Pour boiling water over the dried apricots and let stand for 5 minutes. Then drain the water.

    Place the chicken, cream, leeks, ginger powder, mustard, and salt in the food processor bowl.

  7. 7

    Step 7

    Step 7

    Turn on the appliance for a couple of minutes. The ground meat is ready.

  8. 8

    Step 8

    Step 8

    Distribute the filling over the chicken breasts. Rolls roll very well on a silicone baking mat. I've already learned to manage without one.

  9. 9

    Step 9

    Step 9

    Distribute the sun-dried tomatoes and dried apricots.

  10. 10

    Step 10

    Step 10

    Roll the meat into a roulade; you can tie it with kitchen twine. I simply placed it on parchment in a deep rectangular dish. Put the roulade in the oven for about an hour at 180 degrees.

  11. 11

    Step 11

    Step 11

    While the meat is baking, prepare the jelly. Squeeze the juice from a ripe pomegranate and strain it to remove the seeds. Dissolve the gelatin, combine it with the juice, and mix. You can add a spoonful of hot chili sauce to the jelly.

  12. 12

    Step 12

    Step 12

    Line the mold with plastic wrap, pour in the jelly, and refrigerate until set.

  13. 13

    Step 13

    Step 13

    Cool the finished chicken roll completely.

  14. 14

    Step 14

    Step 14

    Cover the roll with plastic wrap and jelly, pressing the edges firmly. Refrigerate for a couple of hours.
