Instructions
Preparation time: 1 h 40 min. Serves 4. Pairs with rosƩ.
- On a sheet of cling film arrange two or three slices of very thinly sliced bacon. Spread a chicken steak over them and season with salt and black pepper. Spread with a thin layer of cream cheese and arrange 3 thin slices of sun-dried tomato and a few grains of buckwheat/groats over it, which we have toasted beforehand for 3ā4 minutes in a dry pan. Roll each steak up well and tighten it with the film so that it looks like a wrapped sweet. Place the prepared roulades in a pot with boiling water for 20ā25 minutes. After boiling, remove them and put them in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Carefully remove the film from the cooled roulades so their shape is preserved, place them in a tray greased with olive oil and bake for 10ā15 minutes in an oven preheated to 200°C.
- Wash the figs and remove their stems. Hollow out a hole in their fleshy part, where we place a piece of cheese. Bake them in an oven heated to 200°C until the cheese melts.
