Bread rolls are one of the most accessible recipes among all bread recipes. I have grown up eating them my entire life. I have lovely memories associated with them. My mom used to make them every Sunday for us. We would always wake up early and get ready to enjoy these Super Sunday special treats! She prepared them by filling onions and potatoes only. They were so delicious that we would devour them like there was no tomorrow. This recipe is inspired by her. I have modified it with a slight variation in the filling that brings flavour and nutrition to the rolls.
These chicken bread rolls are a delightful snack or appetizer made by stuffing bread with a chicken filling and then frying them to golden perfection. To make chicken filling, I use onion, garlic, capsicum, potato and seasoning to enhance the flavour. The chicken rolls recipe is so flavourful that you can't stop eating them!
Finish the dish with flavourful yogurt drink masala lassi to beat the hot vibes if you serve them in hot weather. And there is no comparison between flavourful masala chai prepared with your homemade chai masala and served with them! It is heavenly and incredible!!

- Pair the chicken bread rolls with a fresh and crisp salad using lettuce, onions, tomatoes etc.,
Storage
- Consuming these chicken-filled rolls the same day you prepare them seems the best option.
- To save time, you can make this dish ahead of time by preparing bread rolls and storing them in the refrigerator. Fry them before serving.
- If you plan to store them for a longer time, the best is you half-fry these bread rolls and then freeze them once they are at room temperature. Fry them again as and when required.
Variations
- If you prefer low-oil chicken bread rolls go for baking/air frying.
- For baking - preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush them with oil to promote browning. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until crispy and golden.
- For air frying - preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Lightly coat the air fryer basket with cooking spray or brush it with a small amount of oil to prevent sticking. Cook the rolls in the preheated air fryer for approximately 12-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time.
- Play with filling like cheese, veggies like, carrots, spinach, corn, peas, etc.,
- You can also experiment with seasonings like, adding sauces, peppers, mayo, aioli etc.,
Tips
- Use bread that is fresh and slightly thick.
- Trimming the crusts from the bread slices is not essential, but it helps seal the rolls properly and gives them a neat appearance.
- Boil potatoes of the right consistency to get the best roll recipe. Avoid potatoes being mushy.
- Allow the filling sufficient time to be cooled down.
- Check the filling and adjust the seasoning before making the rolls.
- To make the rolls dip each bread slice in stock just enough to become slightly moist. Avoid oversoaking of them as the bread will tear apart while rolling them.
- Seal the edges of the rolls well to prevent the filling from leaking out while frying.
- Heat the oil enough to get the perfect crispy layer of bread.
- Remove the rolls from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil.
- Serve hot to prevent them from being soggy.
