Chicken fillet is an excellent dietary meat from which a wide variety of dishes are prepared. For example, roll, schnitzel, gravy, goulash. From a considerable list of all kinds of recipes, a sirloin in the form of a chop has proven itself well. Such a dish can completely replace the usual sausage. A chop is prepared with a wide variety of fillings - minced meat, dried apricots, mushrooms, fruits, ham, onions, olives. Today I propose a recipe for a chop with prunes and additional products: tomatoes and cheese. This dish has a spicy taste due to the combination of sweet and meat ingredients.

Your guests will simply be delighted with such a meal! And the aftertaste of sweet and sour prunes with chicken meat will pleasantly remind the hostess of the hospitality and culinary skills! By the way, there is an alternative way to prepare such chops - roll the fillet into small rolls. You will also get an excellent dish that can be consumed not only hot, but also cold, as a cut. In any case, chicken fillet chops or rolls will always be very appetizing to be ironed. Not to mention the nutritional value and amazing taste.

1. Place the chicken fillet on a board, cover with cling film and beat off with a kitchen hammer on both sides. Do not be too zealous, because chicken meat is very tender and can form holes in it. The fillet should be about 1 cm thick.
