TIPS FROM ME TO YOU
- To keep your work area clean place your chicken breasts in a freezer resealable plastic bag. Then pound with a metal mallet, rolling pin or even a can of vegetables.
- I buy roasted red peppers in a jar, they last forever in the fridge. I use them in everything from sandwiches to salads and dishes such as this.
- This chicken rolls can be prepared 24 hours in advanced for quick and easy dinning. Roll them up, place seam side down in your baking dish, cover with plastic wrap and pop them in your fridge.
