Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Place the chicken breasts between plastic wrap and pound to 1/4 inch thickness.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine ricotta, Parmesan, garlic, basil, parsley, thyme, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
  4. Spread the filling over the chicken and roll tightly, securing with toothpicks.
  5. Sear rolls in olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Using fresh ingredients and even pounding of the chicken is key for the best results. Secure rolls tightly to prevent filling from spilling out.
