1 tablespoon Kosher salt
2 bunches Rosemary; soaking in water

2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil

In a small mixing bowl, stir together olive oil, vinegar, mustard seeds and chervil. Add apple julienne and stir to coat. Slice cooled, smoked chicken breast on bias to make thin pieces, about 2½-inches square. Place a tablespoon of apple mixture on each slice of chicken and roll up. Skewer with toothpick and pass as appetizers.

This recipe yields 4 servings as appetizers or passed hors d'oeuvres.
