Chicken rolls with mozzarella - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I substitute mozzarella with another type of cheese?

Yes, you can use provolone, cheddar, or even feta for a different flavor profile. Just ensure the cheese melts well if you prefer a gooey texture.

How long can I store leftover chicken rolls in the fridge?

Store them in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.

Can I make this recipe gluten-free?

Absolutely! Use gluten-free flour or almond flour for breading, and ensure all other ingredients are gluten-free.

What sides pair well with chicken rolls?

Serve with a fresh salad, steamed vegetables, or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.

Can I freeze these chicken rolls before frying?

Yes, freeze them after breading on a tray, then transfer to a bag. Fry directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

How can I make this dish lower in calories?

Use low-fat cream and mayonnaise, and bake the rolls at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes instead of frying.

What’s the best way to ensure the chicken stays juicy?

Avoid overcooking—fry until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

Can I use chicken thighs instead of breast?

Yes, thighs work well and add more flavor. Adjust cooking time slightly as they may cook faster.

Is there a vegetarian version of this recipe?

Try substituting chicken with large portobello mushrooms or eggplant slices, filled with the same cheesy mixture and baked or fried.
