Gather @fresh dill{3%tbsp}, @fresh parsley{3%tbsp}, @all-purpose flour{100%g} and @sunflower oil{500%ml}.

Mash the softened @butter{120%g} with @garlic{2%clove}, dill, parsley, @lemon{0.5} juice and @salt{}. Shape into 4 logs and freeze 20 minutes until firm. ~{20%minutes}

Butterfly each @chicken breast{4}, cover with plastic wrap and pound to an even 5 mm thickness.

Season the chicken, place a butter log on each, fold in the sides and roll into a tight parcel.

Coat each roll in flour, then @egg{3}, then @breadcrumbs{200%g} — and then egg and breadcrumbs a second time.

Chill the rolls for 15 minutes while the oil heats to 170°C. ~{15%minutes}

Fry two at a time until deep golden, about 4 minutes, then finish in a 180°C oven for 10 minutes; the chicken should reach 74°C inside. ~{10%minutes}

Rest 2 minutes, warn everyone about the butter, and serve. ~{2%minutes}
