Servings: 4 people
- 2 medium eggplants, sliced lengthwise into thin strips
Filling
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast sliced into strips
- 1-2 lemons, juice and zest
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tbsp oregano
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
Preheat the oven to 425f or 220c + line a baking sheeting with parchment paper. Lay out the strips of eggplant in a single layer and bake for 10-15 minutes or until pliable, depending on the thickness of the slices!
While the eggplant bakes, mix all of the other ingredients in a large bowl. Toss the chicken and it's marinade. Leave to infuse until the eggplant is ready.
Once the eggplant is done cooking, allow it to cool enough to touch. Once cool, take a slice and lay it flat. At one end of the slice, lay 3-4 strips of the marinated chicken and some onion. Roll the eggplant around the chicken until it forms a closed roll. Lay the completed roll up seam side down on the baking sheet + complete all of the rolls!
Bake for 18-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through - this will depend on how full the rolls are. Serve hot!
