Chicken Roulade with Pickled Plum and Shiso

Infused with pickled plum and shiso flavors

Shiso is now abundant in our planter. I am so psyched! There are so many dishes I want to try with the shiso leaves. Here is one. Chicken roulade. I used pickled plum for the tanginess and saltiness, and shiso for that wonderful clean green flavor.

Chicken Roulade With Pickled Plum And Shiso

2 chicken cutlets
4 tsp pickled plum paste, 2 tsp for each cutlet
4 shiso leaves
salt and pepper
flour for dredging
1 Tbsp canola oil

Salt and pepper the chicken cutlets on both sides. Spread the pickled plum paste on just one side of each cutlet. Lay two pieces of shiso leaves on top of the plum paste. Roll the chicken and secure with a toothpick. Lightly dredge the rolled chicken with flour. Brown the chicken on all sides in the frying pan with canola oil. Cover with a lid and steam cook for 4-5 minutes. Cool and slice them into bite sizes. Serve with extra plum paste and shiso on the side.
