Chicken Breast Macadamia

This great dish really highlights the versatility of our Macadamia Nuts.

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts boned
  • 1/2 cup macadamia nuts finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup shallots chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 8 sheets filo pastry
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • Salt and pepper

Method

Flatten chicken by beating between layers of plastic wrap or wax paper with a rolling pin. Brush with melted butter.

Place 2 tablespoons butter in a frying pan and saute shallots until soft. Spread shallots, macadamia nuts, salt and pepper over each chicken breast.

Fold each breast and place on a sheet of filo pastry. Roll up into a neat packet and brush with melted butter. Butter a second sheet of pastry and roll up the chicken packet. Brush outside with melted butter.

Bake on a greased tray in a preheated oven for 55 minutes. Baste at regular intervals and serve hot.
