Experience the classic Chicken Kyiv at MLYN Ukrainian Restaurant — a tender chicken fillet stuffed with fragrant butter and herbs, coated in egg and golden breadcrumbs, then pan-fried to crispy perfection. This iconic Ukrainian dish is one of our most celebrated offerings on Corydon Avenue in Winnipeg.
Chicken Kyiv is one of the most iconic dishes in Ukrainian and Eastern European cuisine, and at MLYN, we prepare it the traditional way. A tender chicken breast is carefully butterflied, stuffed with a fragrant mixture of butter, garlic, and fresh herbs, then sealed, coated in egg and breadcrumbs, and pan-fried until the exterior is perfectly golden and crispy while the inside remains juicy and aromatic.
Our guests consistently rave about the moment they cut into our Chicken Kyiv — the rich, herbed butter flows out, creating a delicious sauce that pairs beautifully with the accompaniments. Served with fresh vegetables and your choice of side, it is a dish that embodies the elegance and depth of Ukrainian culinary tradition. A must-try at MLYN on Corydon Avenue.
