Morels are delicious mushrooms, and combined with chicken breast and rice, they create a nutritious and flavorful meal. We start by washing the morels thoroughly to ensure they are clean. After washing them, we place them in a bowl of cold water, letting them soak. Alternatively, if you want to speed up the process, you can boil them a few times in a pot, which will help remove the excess salt. In the meantime, we take care of the rice. We wash it well under running cold water to remove the starch, then we boil it in water with a little salt. After a few minutes, when it is almost cooked, we drain the water and set it aside. Now we focus on the chicken breast. We wash it and pat it dry with a paper towel to remove moisture. Using a meat mallet, we gently pound the breast to obtain a uniform and thin strip of meat. It is important to be careful not to tear the meat during this process. Once we have the desired shape, we season the breast well with salt and pepper to add a bit of flavor. The soaked morels, after draining, are finely chopped. In a bowl, we mix the cooked rice with the chopped morels, adding grated parmesan for extra flavor. Don’t forget to add a little pepper to enhance the flavors. On one edge of the chicken breast, we place this delicious filling, and on top, we add a few slices of cheese. Then, carefully, we roll the chicken breast, ensuring that the filling remains well wrapped. To give the roll a more intense flavor and aroma, we mix the oil with a little salt, pepper, and sweet paprika. Using a brush, we coat the roll with this mixture. Next, we take the puff pastry, which we roll out a bit to make it thinner. We place the roll on one edge of the pastry and gently roll it up, making sure to cover the roll well. Finally, we seal the ends to prevent the filling from leaking during baking. The rolled dish is placed in a baking tray lined with parchment paper and brushed with beaten egg to achieve a golden and appetizing crust. We place it in the preheated oven at medium temperature and let it brown nicely. When it’s ready, we take it out and let it cool slightly, then we can slice it. This delicacy can be served alongside a fresh salad, grilled vegetables, or even pickles for a pleasant contrast. Enjoy this delicious recipe! Bon appétit!
