Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Chicken Kyiv consists of a boned, flattened chicken breast that is rolled around chilled herb butter, breaded, and then fried. Although the dish is very popular, no one knows where it came from or how it got its name, and there are numerous contradicting theories attributing its invention to Ukrainian, Russian, and French chefs. It was at the height of its popularity in the 1970s, but quickly fell out of favor in the late 1980s with the rise of nouvelle cuisine. Interestingly, in Soviet hotels’ tourist brochures, guests were warned of the dangers of splattering themselves with hot butter.
