Yield 20 rounds

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts, halved (about 1 pound each)
4 slices Westphalian ham (thin slices) or 4 slices black forest ham (thin slices)
4 slices gruyere (thin slices) or 4 slices emmenthaler cheese (thin slices)
1 medium garlic clove, very finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon marjoram or 1/4 teaspoon sage
fresh ground white pepper
1/3 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup chicken broth
watercress or parsley sprig

Steps:

Place each chicken breast between sheets of plastic wrap and pound it lightly with the flat side of a cleaver or a wooden mallet until it is about 1/4 inch thick. Trim the slices of ham and cheese so that they are the same size as the flattened pieces of chicken. Place a slice of ham on each piece of chicken and cover the ham with a slice of cheese. Season with the finely chopped garlic, thyme, marjoram, or sage and white pepper. Roll up the pieces tightly and fasten with wooden picks, or tie securely with string.
Arrange the roulades in a greased baking sheet just large enough to hold them comfortably in one layer and pour the wine and broth over them. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake in a preheated 350°F oven 35 to 40 minutes or until the chicken is tender.
Transfer the roulades to a platter and cool to room temperature, then cover and chill. Remove the wooden picks or string. Slice the roulades crosswise into rounds and arrange on a chilled serving platter. Garnish with watercress or parsley sprigs and serve. Makes about 20.
VARIATION: In a medium sized, heavy skillet melt 2 Tablespoons Clarified Butter, or heat a mixture of 1 tablespoon each butter and flavorless vegetable oil or olive oil over moderate. Add the roulades and sauté, turning to brown lightly on all sides. Add the wine and chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer about 30 minutes or until the chicken is tender. Cool, chill, slice, and serve as directed above.

HAM ROULADES

Ham Roulades image

These tasty little appetizers are a hit at gatherings. I usually make 1/2 of these without the horseradish when kids will be around. Plan ahead, as these need to chill. Time does not include chill time.

Tips:

Use thin ham slices. This will make it easier to roll the roulades and prevent them from tearing.
Pound the ham slices flat. This will also help to prevent them from tearing and make them more tender.
Use a variety of fillings. The possibilities are endless, so get creative! Some popular fillings include cheese, spinach, mushrooms, and roasted red peppers.
Roll the roulades tightly. This will help to keep the filling inside and prevent the roulades from falling apart.
Cook the roulades until they are golden brown and cooked through. The cooking time will vary depending on the size and thickness of the roulades.
Serve the roulades with your favorite sides. Some popular options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and salad.

Conclusion:

Ham roulades are a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of fillings. They are perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With a little planning, you can easily make ham roulades that are sure to impress your family and friends.
