Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 36m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 cups cheese (blue, pepper jack, or your choice -goat cheese is good too!)
1/2-1 tablespoon black pepper
12 -16 slices bacon (3-4 pieces of bacon per 1/2 breast., I use thick but regular bacon works too)
12 -16 toothpicks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F
  • Grease baking pan 13x19 or use non stick pan.
  • Cut chicken breasts in half (pretend your chicken is a person and cut around the waist, not long ways).
  • Cut a pocket into the side of the breast halve about 3/4th the way through each -- try not to slit through the sides or the cheese will run out.
  • Pepper both sizes of the breast for a medium coating. not really thick but not light either.
  • Squeeze your cheese of choice down into a compacted little ball and stuff breast halve as tightly as possible but not so much that you can't pinch the open ends of the chicken together.
  • Spiral wrap the breast with bacon starting with one of the open corners. I usually spiral wrap it with 2-3 pieces and use the last piece to wrap circularly around the sides. This makes it look nice and covers the ends that the spiral wrapping left bare.
  • Use tooth picks to hold your bacon in place. Make sure you don't leave any ends on top of the chicken breast unsecured, they will roll up during cooking and burn and your chicken will dry out --
  • Cook for 25-27 minutes, bacon should start to crisp before you remove the dish from the oven. Inside temperature should be 165 or over.
  • Remove tooth picks, sprinkle a bit of the chosen cheese on top. Let stand 5 minutes to cool, then serve. -.

This simple bacon wrapped chicken breast with goat's cheese filling is a simple way to impress at a last-minute dinner party or it's great for a quick midweek meal

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 chicken breasts
50g soft goat's cheese
4 rashers streaky bacon
handful of fresh sage leaves
1 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

  • Skin 2 chicken breasts, then cut a pocket in each side and stuff each with 25g/1oz soft goat's cheese.
  • Wrap each breast in 2 rashers rindless streaky bacon, tucking in a few fresh sage leaves, then put the breasts in a baking dish and season. Spoon over 1 tbsp olive oil.
  • Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C). To check if they are done, insert a sharp knife into the centre of a parcel and leave it for a few seconds, if the chicken is cooked the tip should feel very hot when you pull it out and touch it. The chicken should also feel very firm when pressed with the back of a fork.
  • Serve with a gratin of potatoes and leeks.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for large, boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Use thin bacon: Thick bacon can be difficult to wrap around the chicken and may not cook evenly.
  • Season the chicken well: Sprinkle the chicken with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before wrapping it in bacon.
  • Wrap the chicken tightly: The bacon should be wrapped snugly around the chicken so that it doesn't fall off during cooking.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the bacon from burning while the chicken cooks through.
  • Use a meat thermometer: The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
