Healthier chicken kiev

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/ fan180°C/gas 6. Mix the garlic, lemon juice, parsley, tarragon, cream cheese and seasoning ?in a bowl to make the filling.
2. Butterfly the chicken breasts by slicing them part of the way through with a sharp knife, then opening the breasts out like a book. Wrap in cling film and gently pound flat with a rolling pin, being careful not to tear the flesh.
3. Place a quarter of the filling into the centre of each flattened breast and fold over one side of the chicken, then the other (like folding a sheet of paper to fit in an envelope). Cover the seal with the flattened small piece of chicken fillet, if you have it (see tip). Roll each breast tightly in cling film and chill for 30 minutes to firm up.
4. When firm, remove from the cling film and dust in the seasoned flour. Dip in the beaten egg, then roll in the breadcrumbs to coat completely, shaking off any excess.
5. Heat an ovenproof frying pan, then add the oil. Fry the kievs on all sides until lightly browned, then transfer to the oven and bake for 20 minutes until golden and cooked through. Serve immediately.
