Photo: Chicken and Honey Mustard Pinwheels Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 store-bought rotisserie chicken breasts, finely shredded to yield 2 cups meat
- 1 1/2 cups arugula, chopped
- 1 cup mascarpone, at room temperature (8 ounces)
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup whole grain mustard
- Zest of 1 large lemon
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Two 12-by-9-inch whole wheat or plain Lavash breads
Directions
Mix the chicken, arugula, cheese, honey, mustard and lemon zest in a medium bowl until smooth. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Divide the mixture in half and spread over the breads, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Starting at the longest edge, tightly roll up the breads like a jelly roll. Cut each sandwich into eight 1 1/2-inch-thick pieces using a serrated knife and serve.

I made some measurement alterations. I used 1/3 cup marscapone, 2 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of mustard, 2 cooked chicken breasts chopped up & a cup of arugula chopped up. My pinwheels came out great. I love the lemon zest, gives it a real zing.

Not super impressed with this recipe. I used half cream cheese and half yogurt instead of the marscapone and half the honey to reduce the sweetness like others had mentioned to do so. I couldn't taste the chicken; the ratio of chicken to cream was way off. I will not be making this again, however the idea on pinwheels got me experimenting with other ingredients. I love the idea of pinwheels, so thank you for that Giada:

I love Giada and have really enjoyed her recipes, until this one. There were so many things wrong with this, I actually had to improvise so that my boyfriend and I could eat. First of all, mascarpone is too dessert-y. The pinwheels were way too sweet, I could have nearly eliminated it. Also, I couldn't taste the chicken. I was kind of embarrassed to serve this, it was sickly sweet and totally confusing. C'mon Giada...you're my favorite!
