How to cook Chicken Thigh Roll

Step 1

Chicken Thigh Roll

Prepare the roll. Spread foil on the table. Make a rectangular layer from the chicken thigh fillet. Make sure there are no gaps between the pieces of meat. Salt, pepper the thighs, sprinkle with paprika, poultry spices, and garlic. Using foil, carefully roll the meat into a roll, secure the edges. If you have time, put the meat in the refrigerator for 2 hours to marinate. If you don’t have time, bake it right away. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Bake the chicken thigh roll for 45-50 minutes.

Chicken Thigh Roll - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute chicken breast, but thighs are juicier and more flavorful. If using breast, reduce cooking time by 10-15 minutes to prevent dryness.
Store the cooked roll in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
For a vegetarian version, try using thinly sliced eggplant or zucchini layered with similar spices and cheese, then rolled and baked until tender.
Reheat in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) covered with foil for 15-20 minutes, or until warmed through. Adding a splash of broth helps retain moisture.
Yes, wrap the cooled roll tightly in foil and plastic wrap, then freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad. A light gravy or garlic aioli also complements the flavors well.
Skip any starchy sides and serve with low-carb options like cauliflower mash, sautéed greens, or a crisp cucumber salad.
Let the roll rest for 10 minutes after baking to allow juices to set. Use a sharp knife and gentle sawing motion for clean slices.
