  • tablespoons chives fresh finely chopped
  • tablespoons parsley fresh finely chopped
  • tablespoons tarragon fresh finely chopped
  • teaspoons thyme leaves fresh finely chopped
  • servings kosher salt and pepper freshly ground
  • cups panko bread crumbs (Japanese breadcrumbs)
  • 2.3 pounds chicken breasts boneless skinless
  • sticks butter unsalted softened
  • servings vegetable oil for frying

Equipment

  • bowl
  • frying pan
  • baking sheet
  • baking paper
  • oven
  • whisk
  • wire rack
  • plastic wrap
  • ziploc bags

Directions

  1. Mix the butter, tarragon, parsley, chives, thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl. Scoop the mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper and roll into a 1-inch-thick log. Wrap and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours and up to 3 days.
  2. Slice the frozen butter into 6 equal pieces.
  3. Lay a chicken breast between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or 2 large resealable plastic bags; pound to 1/4 inch thick with a heavy skillet or mallet.
  4. Transfer to a clean piece of plastic wrap and season with salt and pepper. Put a piece of herbed butter in the center of the chicken; using the plastic wrap as an aid, tightly roll up the chicken starting at a long side, tucking in the short sides as you go. Tightly wrap the chicken roll in plastic wrap. Repeat with the remaining chicken and butter. Refrigerate the rolls at least 2 hours or overnight.
  5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
  6. Put the flour in a shallow dish.
  7. Whisk the eggs and mustard in another shallow dish.
  8. Put the panko in a third dish. Unwrap the chicken rolls and generously season with salt and pepper. One at a time, dredge the chicken rolls in the flour, then dip in the egg mixture and roll in the panko to coat.
  9. Heat 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken rolls in 2 batches, turning, until golden, 6 to 8 minutes.
  10. Transfer to the prepared rack and bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
