Chicken Kiev

Chicken Kiev is a superb method to combine chicken breasts, bread crumbs, butter and garlic. This has been eaten by so many people, normally purchased from a supermarket. However this recipe is cheaper, easy and so much tastier than you will have experienced.  This Chicken Kiev recipe will produce a moist tasty main dish every time.  I normally serve these with Boiled Potatoes with Herbs and Bravo Green Beans for a filling meal or just with Old-Fashioned Baked Beans.  However, the problem I have is that they go so quickly. My sons and grandson always seem to “pop” round when I cooking these.
