These pretty pinwheels have been a part of our annual Christmas Eve appetizer buffet for many years. I love them because they can be made a day in advance and taste great alone or served with crackers. Laura Mahaffey, Annapolis, Maryland Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves |
1/8 teaspoon plus 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, divided |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
4 thin sliced deli ham |
2 teaspoons lemon juice |
paprika |
orange spread: |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
1 teaspoon grated orange peel |
1 teaspoon orange juice |
Directions:
1. Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. Combine 1/8 teaspoon basil, salt, garlic salt and pepper; sprinkle over chicken. Top each with a ham slice.
2. Roll up jelly-roll style; place seam side down in a greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dish. Drizzle with lemon juice and sprinkle with paprika. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 30 minutes or until chicken juices run clear. Cover and refrigerate.
3. Meanwhile, for orange spread, in a small bowl combine the mayonnaise, orange peel, orange juice and remaining basil. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Cut chicken rolls into 1/2-in. slices. Serve with orange spread. Yield: 24 servings.
