How to make Chicken and Mushroom Roll
Prepare the Eggplant
- Step 1
Slice the eggplant and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for about 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Rinse and pat dry.
Cook the Eggplant
- Step 1
In a skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the eggplant slices and cook until they are tender and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Mushrooms
- Step 1
In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed, and sauté the mushrooms until they are cooked through and lightly browned. Set aside to cool.
Shred the Chicken
- Step 1
Take the cooked chicken breast and shred it into small pieces.
Assemble the Roll
- Step 1
On the pionono, spread a layer of mayonnaise evenly. Then, layer the sautéed mushrooms, cooked eggplant, and shredded chicken on top.
Roll It Up
- Step 1
Carefully roll the pionono from one end to the other, ensuring the filling stays inside.
Chill
- Step 1
Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to help it hold its shape.
Serve
- Step 1
Once chilled, slice the roll into pieces and serve as an appetizer or a light meal.

For a more intense flavor, marinate the chicken breast in your favorite spices before cooking.
Ensure the eggplant is thoroughly dried after rinsing to prevent excess oil absorption during cooking.
