Notes

*You can use regular chicken breasts, but make sure to pound them to an even thickness (about ¼ inch). This ensures even cooking and easier rolling.
**If you can't find Boursin, you can flavor cream cheese with herbs and garlic or more Italian seasoning for a similar flavor and texture.
Tips:
  • If you're having trouble getting the rolls to hold together, you can insert toothpicks through them to hold them together as they cook. Just don't forget to remove them before serving!
  • Properly cooked chicken should read 165°F on an instant-read thermometer. Make sure to check the temperature of the meat, and not the filling.
  • Rest for 5 minutes after baking so the cheese sets and doesn’t ooze out when cut.
  • Serve with roasted veggies or a salad for a low-carb meal.
Storage: Store chicken roll ups in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
