  • 4 x Boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Dry oregano leaves
  • 1/8 tsp Pepper
  • 1 x Garlic clove, chopped
  • 2 ounce Guava paste*
  • 4 x Thin slices cooked ham
  • 1/4 c. Fresh cilantro, finely minced
  • 1 Tbsp. Oil
  • 8 ounce Can Pillsbury Refrigerated Crescent Dinner Rolls
  • 6 ounce Guava paste*
  • 1/4 c. Dry sherry
  • 1/2 c. Minced fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 tsp Beef-flavor instant bouillon

Directions

  1. *Guava paste is available in Mexican & Spanish groceries. If you can't find it, you can substitute the same amount of jellied cranberry sauce.
  2. Place one chicken breast half between 2 pcs of plastic wrap or possibly waxed paper. Working from center, gently lb. chicken with rolling pin or possibly flat side of meat mallet till about 1/4" thick. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts. In small bowl, combine salt, oregano, pepper and garlic; mix well.
  3. Sprinkle proportionately over chicken breasts. Form guava paste into four 2 x 1/2 x 1/2" strips and place one on each ham slice. Spoon about a tablespoonful of cilantro over each strip of guava paste. Fold ham around guava and cilantro to create a foll. Place one roll on narrow end of each chicken half; roll up, jelly-roll fashion. Secure with toothpicks. Heat 1 Tablespoons oil in skillet over medium heat; add in chicken rolls, seam side down. Cook covered for 6 min or possibly till no longer pink, turning once halfway through cooking. Remove toothpicks. Place chicken on paper towels; pat dry. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Separate dough into 4 rectangles; firmly press perforations to seal. Place one chicken roll on each rectangle. Fold dough over chicken; press edges to seal. Place, seam side down, on ungreased cookie sheet. Cut slits in tops to allow steam to escape. Bake for 13 to 18 min or possibly till golden. Meanwhile, in small saucepan over low heat, combine all sauce ingredients; cook and stir till guava paste melts. Simmer till sauce thickens. Place chicken bundles on serving plates; top with sauce. Garnish with additional cilantro, if you like. Serve immediately. (2/3 c. sauce)
