chicken roll

Stuffed fowl dish

Chicken roll refers to several different foods depending on region.

In American deli contexts, it's a processed lunch meat made from chicken, shaped into a cylindrical loaf for slicing: I'll take half a pound of chicken roll.

Elsewhere, it may be chicken wrapped in pastry or bread, or a spring roll filled with chicken.

The term describes the format—rolled or rollable—rather than a single standardized dish.
