Chicken parizer with peppers and olives

The red capia pepper and green olives stay visible in chicken parizer with peppers and olives, boiled in foil. Chicken breast makes it dense and drier than store-bought parizer, while semolina and eggs hold the slices together; adjust the seasoning to taste. I cut the pepper into thin strips so it spreads among the olives in each slice. Prep: 20 minutes. Cook: 60 minutes. Rest: 9 hours. Total time: 10 hours and 20 minutes. Servings: 4. Approximately 535 kcal and 35 g protein per serving.
Ingredients
- 500 g whole chicken breast
- 2 eggs
- 100 g semolina
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 teaspoon seasoning mix (paprika oregano pepper thyme)
- 100 ml olive oil
- 1 medium capia pepper (150 g)
- 75 g pitted brined green olives
- 4000 ml water
- 2 sheets of boil-safe food wrap
- 3 layers of aluminum foil
Preparation
1. Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and cut it into small cubes. Process it for 1-2 minutes, until smooth. 2. Add the eggs, semolina, crushed garlic, salt, pepper and seasoning mix. Process for another 1-2 minutes, pouring in the oil in a thin stream. 3. Cut the capia pepper into strips and add it along with the olives. Gently mix with a spatula. 4. Place the mixture on two sheets of boil-safe food wrap, laid side by side and overlapping slightly. Roll tightly and tie the ends, then wrap the roll in 3 layers of aluminum foil and secure the ends. 5. Bring 4000 ml of water to a boil in a long saucepan. Put the roll in the water so it is covered, cover the pan and simmer for 30 minutes. Turn it over and simmer for another 30 minutes, until the center reaches 74°C. 6. Leave the roll to cool for an hour at room temperature. Remove the wrapping and refrigerate it for 8 hours before slicing.
Notes
It keeps in the fridge for up to 3 days, well wrapped, and you can boil it a day ahead. Semolina contains gluten, and the eggs stay in the mixture; next time I’m thinking of adding 30 g of country duck fat. The slices are good on toast for breakfast. Brined olives can be salty, so taste them first and adjust the salt accordingly. A breast larger than about 500 g makes a thicker roll and may need longer to cook. Don’t slice it while it’s still soft after cooling on the counter; after chilling, the slices hold their shape better.
Frequently asked questions
Can I mince the chicken without a food processor?
Yes, put it through a meat grinder with a fine plate, then mix in the rest with a spatula.
Can I use turkey breast?
Yes, use 500 g of turkey breast; process it finely and check that the center reaches 74°C.
