Using your deboned chicken quarter, this simple recipe will create a flavour explosion for your friends and family. This recipe will make 2 roulades.
Ingredients
- 2 Deboned chicken quarters (leg & thigh combos)
For the filling
- ½ tsp Ground Cinnamon
- ½ tsp Ground Cumin
- ½ tsp Paprika
- 1 tsp Hot chilli sauce
- 1 tsp Salt

- Red wine
For the Glaze
- 2 Tbs Fruit chutney
- ¾ Tbs Balsamic vinegar
Instructions
For the filling

- Mix thoroughly and allow to stand for at least 30 minutes
For the glaze
- Combine the fruit chutney and the balsamic vinegar and mix well
To assemble the roulades
- Spoon a couple of tablespoons of filling onto each deboned chicken quarter.
- Roll the narrower side of the chicken inward, and bring the other side of the chicken up and over this to enclose the filling
