Best Wheat Thins Crusted Chicken Rolls Recipes

CHICKEN CRESCENT ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a bowl, stir together soup, milk and ½ cup of cheese. Pour into the bottom of an 8-inch square baking dish. Set aside.
• In a separate bowl, combine chicken and remaining ½ cup of cheese.
• Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into 8 triangles. Place about 1-2 heaping tablespoons of the chicken mixture on the wide end of each crescent roll. Roll the dough up and place each crescent roll (seam-side down) in the bottom of the dish.
• Bake, uncovered, until the liquid is bubbly and the tops of the crescent rolls are browned (about 25 minutes). The bottom of the rolls (that are submerged in the sauce) will stay soft - like dumplings -- but will still be cooked through.

ITALIAN STUFFED CHICKEN ROLL-UPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425F (220C). Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
• In a shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and parsley. Pour milk into a separate bowl.
• Place a slice of ham and a slice of provolone cheese on each chicken breast. Depending on the size of your ham and cheese slices, you may need to trim them or cut them in half so that they are not hanging too far out of the roll-up.
• Roll up chicken and secure with toothpicks.
• Dip chicken rolls in milk, then coat with a light coating of the crumb mixture.
• Place chicken seam-side down on prepared baking sheet.
• Lightly spray chicken with cooking spray (this will help it turn golden brown!).
• Bake, uncovered, for about 25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove toothpicks and serve!

WHOLE WHEAT-CRUSTED CHICKEN BREAST CUTLETS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and brush the foil lightly with the olive oil. Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season them generously with the salt and pepper.
• 2. In a small bowl, blend together the mustard and mayonnaise. Coat the top of each chicken breast evenly with about 1 tablespoon of the mixture.
• 3. Spread the bread crumbs on a shallow plate. Roll the chicken breasts in them gently, pressing down firmly to coat them evenly.
• 4. Transfer the chicken to the foil-lined baking sheet and bake until cooked through, 12 to 14 minutes. Adjust oven temperature to broil and cook until the crust is golden brown and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes more. For a healthy alternative to chicken fingers, serve the cutlets sliced into 2-by 4-inch pieces.

NO KNEAD CRUSTY ROLLS

Steps:

• In a large bowl combine dry ingredients. Stir in water. Mixture will be thick and sticky.
• Cover with plastic wrap & let stand on counter top for 3 hours.
• After 3 hours (mixture will be puffy and bubbly on top) place dough on a well-floured surface. Using a scraper fold over about 12 times, adding enough flour so it doesn't stick (about 2 Tbsp).
• Using a scraper cut dough into 8 pieces. With floured hands, shape each into a ball by folding and tucking, like making a drawstring bag.
• Place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet (not wax paper) & cover with a dish towel. Let stand at room temperature for 35 minutes. They will puff up but will not double in size.
• As soon as rolls are covered, start preheating oven to 450° F. Oven must be 450° so use an oven thermometer if possible.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. To re-crisp the next day, preheat the oven to 325° F and place the rolls directly on the oven rack for 10-12 minutes.

CRISPY BAKED CHICKEN ROLL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a medium cast iron skillet or pan, cook the bacon until almost brown, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onions and cook, stirring, until caramelized, about 10 minutes.
• Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Place a chicken breast on a piece of plastic wrap. Cover with more plastic wrap and pound until thin. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
• Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap and layer the chicken on the plastic so the edges are overlapping slightly.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Layer the ham, Swiss cheese, and bacon-carmelized onion mixture over the chicken.
• Roll the chicken into a log tightly wrap in plastic, twisting the ends to seal.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour to set.
• Add the flour, eggs, and panko to 3 separate baking sheets or other wide, shallow dishes. Roll the chicken in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the panko. Coat once more in the egg, then panko.
• Transfer the chicken roll to a greased baking sheet and bake at 375° (190 celsius) for 40 minutes, until golden brown.
• Make the creamy Dijon sauce: in a small pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and cook until aromatic. Add the flour and cook until starting to brown. Whisk in the milk, then add the mustard and season with salt and pepper. Add the Parmesan and cook until the sauce is thickened.
• Slice the chicken roll and serve with the sauce and fresh parsley.
• Enjoy!

THIN SANDWICH BUNS

Steps:

• In a bowl sprinkle the sugar over the warm water, then do the same with the yeast. Add the egg and oil and combine. In a separate container, use a fork or a whisk to stir together the flour, bran, wheat gluten, and salt. Add 1/2 of this mixture to the wet ingredients and blend. This is the sponge.
• Let rise 30 - 45 minutes.
• Add rest of flour mixture and knead for about 5 minutes. I use my stand mixer with the dough attachment. This dough will be sticky.
• Spray 2 cookie sheets with cooking spray. Divide dough into 16 equal portions. This is a wet dough so instead of adding any additional flour, I weigh the dough on a food scale and divide it by 16. Then I weigh out each portion and put 8 on each cookie sheet. Don't worry about how it looks now.
• Take a 4" biscuit cutter and place it over one of the dough portions. If you wet the inside of the cutter as well as your fingers you can spread the dough into a perfect circle by using your fingers to flatten it to the inside edge of the biscuit cutter. (These will be very thin but they will rise). Remove the cutter, re-wet the inside and use it to do the same thing to the remaining 15 buns.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Let the buns rise until double in bulk, about 30-45 minutes.
• Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Don't overbake. Cool the buns and then cut them in half for sandwich buns.
• Edit Note: Since I first started making these I've made 2 changes. One is that I make them in muffin top pans sprayed with Pam. No cutting involved.
• The other thing is that I use oat fiber instead of the wheat bran. I ordered oat fiber online. It is NOT the same as oat bran and is in many things these days, so I decided to try it instead of wheat bran. It is very high fiber, few calories, and pleasant tasting. Just use in moderation. In this recipe I use only 1/4 cup. It is 5 calories and 26 grams of fiber for the 1/4 cup. Also, it is more mild tasting than the wheat bran.

CRUSTY ROLLS

Steps:

• In a bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add shortening, sugar, salt and 1 cup flour; beat until smooth. Add egg whites; mix well. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes (dough will be stiff). Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours., Punch dough down; divide into 24 pieces and shape into balls. Sprinkle greased baking sheets with cornmeal. Place rolls 2 in. apart on baking sheets. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. , Place a large shallow pan filled with boiling water on lowest rack in oven. Bake rolls on middle rack at 425° for 10-11 minutes or until golden brown.

WHEAT THINS CRUSTED CHICKEN ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place Wheat Thins in food processor and chop into breadcrumb sized pieces. Using a meat mallet, pound chicken to 1/4 inch thickness.
• Spread 1 oz. softened cream cheese over chicken and roll up jelly roll fashion. Secure with toothpicks if needed. Set up a breading station by placing flour in one shallow dish, egg white in another and finally the crushed Wheat Thins in a third shallow dish. Dredge the stuffed chicken in the flour, dip into the egg white and finally the crushed Wheat Thins.
• Place chicken on baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Coat chicken rolls lightly with cooking spray. Bake in preheated over for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
