Polish breaded chicken roulade stuffed with garlic-parsley butter that bursts when cut. The Polish reading of Kiev cutlet, central to socialist-era restaurant menus and Sunday lunch.

Kotlet de volaille entered Polish kitchens through 19th-century French haute cuisine influence at noble courts. The Polish name (literally 'chicken cutlet') stuck while the technique remained the Kiev-style stuffed roulade. Post-1945 socialist Poland made it a permanent fixture on restaurant cards, including at Poznań's Stary Rynek bistros. Ratuszova and Modra Kuchnia plate the canonical version with mashed potato and beetroot salad.
