Description

These treats can be served as a substantial party snack - they're easy to eat with your fingers when they have cooled down.

Method

Preheat oven to 200C.

Lay each slice of schnitzel on a board.  Place a few strips of capsicum, some mozzarella strips and a few basil leaves on one end of each piece. Roll up, pinwheel style, and secure with a toothpick.

Place the schnitzel rolls into a baking dish.  Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with dried herbs and season with salt and pepper.  Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Garnish with basil leaves and serve immediately.
