Instructions

1- Prepare the Pepper Butter:

• Cut 100g of butter into smaller pieces to soften at room temperature. Place in a glass bowl.
• Finely dice 2 shallots and 50g of green pepper. Coarsely grate 3 mushrooms.

2- Sauté the Vegetables:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small frying pan. Sauté mushrooms until browned and water has evaporated.
• Add shallots and pepper, sauté for a few minutes, then add red wine and reduce until almost no liquid remains.

3- Combine with Butter:

• Cool the mixture completely, mix with the softened butter, and season with salt to taste.
• Form the butter mixture into a log on plastic wrap, wrap tightly, and chill until hard.

4- Prepare the Chicken:

• Trim 2 chicken breasts and butterfly them by making a horizontal cut.
• Flatten with a meat mallet under plastic wrap to an even thickness.

5- Assemble the De Volaille:

• Place a chilled butter log in the center of each flattened breast. Roll tightly to encase the butter.
• Prepare dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.

6- Bread and Cook the Chicken:

• Coat each chicken roll in flour, then egg, and breadcrumbs. Repeat egg and breadcrumbs for double breading.
• Heat rapeseed oil to 170-180°C in a stainless steel pot. Fry each roll for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and cooked. Drain on paper towels.

7- Prepare the Salad:

• Peel and slice 100g of cucumber and 1 kohlrabi into thin ribbons using a Y-peeler.
• Finely slice 1 hot pepper and 1 shallot.

8- Dress the Salad:

• For dressing, whisk agave syrup, wine vinegar, salt, and pepper with olive oil.
• Toss cucumber, kohlrabi, pepper, shallot, and capers in the dressing. Add lamb's lettuce and toss just before serving.
