Recipes With a Twist
Chicken Roulade
By Heidemarie Swanepoel
As I looked through my freezer this morning, I really did not feel like same old, same old. When I saw the chicken breasts, I came up with the most brilliant idea – A roulade! It was wonderfully quick and easy to prepare, and everyone loved it. I will have to make it again, sometime soon.
Ingredients: (per person)
- 1 chicken breast fillet
- 1 slice of cheese (easy slice works well)
- 1 tablespoon chilli relish
- 1 gherkin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying.
- Toothpicks for securing.
Method:
- With a mallet, flatten the chicken breast as much as possible.
- Fry in a heated pan for no longer than 3 minutes each side.
- Spread the chilli relish on the top.
- Cover with a slice of cheese.
- Place the gherkin in the middle, and roll the roulade carefully.
- Secure with toothpicks.
- Serve immediately with a fresh salad and a bread roll.
And please let me know how this turns out!

I wanted to try making it ever since I noticed my son liked a ‘Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta’ from a local Italian restaurant. That inspired me try making Basil Pesto Sauce and this is what I made first using the Pesto sauce. This is not a perfectly low calorie dish. I can say it might

Savoury Hurry-up Muffins

By Heidemarie Swanepoel These are quick and easy muffins, with a delicious filling in the centre. I find that these muffins are also a good way of using up those little bits of left-overs that are too little to use for another meal, but too much to just throw away. I like using these little

Chipotle Chicken Kebabs

Here is one flaming hot recipe. I have been trying to imitate Chipotle Mexican Grill’s chicken for quite some time. Although this may not be the exact same thing, but it comes quite close – only slightly hotter. Since I like hot food and usually am never too embarrassed of putting Tobasco/Tapatío or any other
