Shanna's Favorite Chicken Kiev'
By: 2Bleu (Bird&Buddha)
Oct 10, 2007
My Daughter Shanna loves this recipe that I have made for her for many years. This one is baked, not fried as the classic kiev, and uses flour, not bread crumbs. This creates a sort of 'stuffing' with the flour that is very moist, while the seasoned butter oozes out during baking, and that makes for a wonderful topping to drizzle over the sliced up chicken breasts and around the plate. This chicken goes great with Bird's Rice Pilaf With Tarragon or try Bird's Creamed Potatoes With Roasted Garlic
SERVES 4
Ingredients
Seasoned Butter
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
Chicken
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- flour, for dredging
Garnish
- fresh parsley, chopped
- butter (seasoned drippings from the chicken pan)
Directions
1
MAKE SEASONED BUTTER: In a medium sized bowl, mix butter (room temperature), garlic powder, and parsley. Slowly add the soy sauce to incorporate. place in the fridge to firm up a bit while you prep the chicken.2
PREPARE CHICKEN: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place one chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a mallet, flatten to an even thickness of about 1/2". Repeat with remaining breasts. (NOTE: If desired, once you pound the breast out flat, you can cut it in half lengthwise to make smaller serving sizes).3
Dredge chicken breasts in flour. Lay pieces on counter, (As a referrence: if skin were on the breast, it would be skin side down). Sprinkle a little flour on the side facing up.4
Take 1/8 of the butter and roll it in a log shape the width of a breast. Roll the log in the flour generously.5
Place the butter log on one end of the breast. Dust with a little more flour. Roll the breast up, securing with a toothpick if needed. Take another 1/8 of the butter and spread over top.6
Place in baking dish. Continue with the other 3 breasts. (NOTE: At this point, you can cover and place in fridge for as long as the next day and bake when needed). Bake for 35 to 40 minutes.7
SUGGESTED SERVE: Place some rice, or mashed potatoes, onto a serving plate. Slice the chicken breasts on the bias and carefully place over rice or potatoes. Spoon butter drippings over top and sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Made this for dinner tonight and it was fantastic! I made as directed only used dried parsley because that's what I had. It was still delicious and will be a meal I make again. Served with rice that we drizzled with butter drippings from the pan. DH said, "You need to give this one a high rating!" Thanks 2Bleu for sharing this family favorite.

4 Stars, delicious, used the herb butter in this recipe and served with steamed rice and steamed broccoli. DH said, "Don't lose this recipe!" The ingredients made twice as much herbed butter as needed; I was able to mix with a fork until I added the soy sauce, then the electric beater finished the job. I used thinly-cut chicken cutlets so I wouldn't have to pound. Great for prepare-ahead dinners. Made for Please Review My Recipe.

This is superb! I should have made it sooner! I followed your recipe as is but using your recommended Herb Butter for Poultry for the seasoned butter. I used also an icing pipe without the ends to make the logs of butter. Love the bit of crunch of the herb butter seasoning on top of the chicken after it was baked and the taste of garlic butter with herbs in this chicken dish! Thanks, 2Bleu!

This is a very tasty dish and has a lovely presentation and is very easy to prepare. It's a bit on the rich side for our family so while we won't be having this as a regular weekly meal, we will be enjoying from time to time especially if having company over. The butter drippings were very tasty spooned over mashed potatoes. I rolled the butter mix up into a square log shap on a length of parchment paper and put in the freezer instead of the fridge. This really helped with dividing it up into 8 equal portions and also for being able to work with it.
