Chicken Roll with Creamy Chipotle Sauce

Here are the ingredients you need for this recipe

• 2-3 large chicken breasts
• 100g serrano ham
• Low-fat cream cheese
• Pink Himalayan salt

For the sauce

• 1 large onion
• Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp spelt flour
• 250ml unsweetened soy milk
• Black pepper
• Chipotle Tabasco sauce
• Sweet paprika

Method

1. 1Butterfly the chicken breasts and lay them side by side, slightly overlapping along the edges to create one long rectangle.
2. 2Add the serrano ham and cream cheese to a food processor and pulse until you have a smooth, spreadable paste.
3. 3Spread the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and roll them up tightly like a Swiss roll.
4. 4Tie everything securely with kitchen twine so the filling doesn't leak out, season the outside with a little salt, and place it on a baking tray.
5. 5Bake at 180ºC for 20-25 minutes.
6. 6Meanwhile, prepare the sauce in a small saucepan.
7. 7Grate the onion and gently cook it down in a good drizzle of olive oil until soft and translucent.
8. 8Add the tablespoon of flour and stir constantly for a minute so it doesn't burn.
9. 9Pour in the plant milk, stir well, and simmer over low heat along with the black pepper, paprika, and a few drops of chipotle sauce to taste until it thickens to your liking (taste and adjust the salt, heat, or texture by adding a splash more milk if needed).
10. 10Serve the warm sauce alongside the sliced chicken roll.
11. 11And that's it! Our chicken roll with creamy chipotle sauce is ready to enjoy.
