Good Eats Chicken Kiev (From Alton Brown 2004), Chicken Kiev’, aka Tsiplenokovo Po-Kievski and also known as ‘Chicken Supreme’ (in Europe), is a boned and flattened chicken breast that is then rolled around a chilled piece of herbed butter which is then breaded and fried This method of preparing chicken is not of Russian origin as the name Kiev’ would imply It was actually created by French chef, Nicolas (Francois) Appert (1749-1841) It is said that restaurants in NYC wanting to welcome the many Russian immigrants gave the name Kiev The name went back to Europe and there known as ‘Chicken Supreme’ After World War II, Chicken Kiev became popular in Russian restaurants Russian cookbooks have recipes for a similar dish called ctelettes de volaille This version is compliments of Alton Brown We baked it (rather than fry) at 400F for 30 minutes with great results The tarragon and panko give this recipe a very unique flavor , Am rating this with no stars as this was the first time we have tried panko crumbs and the herb mix and unfortunately we did not care for the flavour mix, just not to our tastes, which was a shame as it looked so good Thank 2Bleu for giving me the opportunity to try your recipe Made for Please Review My Recipe NOTE – re-rating this 28th May 2010, made this a few nights ago using regular dried bread crumbs and we loved it, other than that cooked exactly to recipe, thank you , Made for Photo Tag No photo my dear blue-feathered friends 🙁 Once I get mine fixed or dare I hope for a new one!I have no idea how long I will be camera-less Now about this chicken kiev OMG its SO good!
