Place on one end of the chicken and roll the chicken jelly roll style,
so that the spinach/roasted pepper roll is rolled up in the chicken.
Place seam side down and repeat. (The chicken may be prepared to
this point up to 8 hours ahead; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate.)
Just before steaming, tie a chive around the center of each bundle,
with the knot on the underside.
Spray the bottom of the larger steamer tray with cooking spray or
olive oil.
Arrange the chicken roulades in the large steamer tray. Fill the water
reservoir and steam for 18 - 22 minutes. Turn off the steamer, unplug
and let sit for 1 minute. Remove the fan arm and lid, transfer the
chicken roulades to a serving plate, and serve. May be served hot or
cold.
To make a whole meal:
Spray the bottom of both steamer trays with cooking spray or olive
oil. Arrange the quartered potatoes in a single layer in the large tray.
Arrange four chicken roulades in the second steamer tray (they
should not touch each other or the sides). Steam for 18 minutes.
While the potatoes and chicken steam, trim carrots to fit the large
feed tube of a Cuisinart
®
food processor horizontally. Insert the
3 mm julienne disc and julienne the carrots. After 18 minutes, turn
off steamer and let sit one minute; remove turbo convection fan and
lid. Chicken should be completely cooked (170º F when tested with
an instant read thermometer), and potatoes nearly done. Remove
chicken to a warm platter and cover loosely with foil. If potatoes are
hard, steam for 3 – 5 minutes longer before continuing. Arrange
carrots and snow peas in second steamer tray. Steam for 3 – 4
minutes for crisp-tender vegetables. Turn off steamer and let sit
1 minute; remove turbo convection fan and lid. Arrange the vegeta-
bles and potatoes on the platter with the chicken and serve.
