BACON WRAPPED STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST
INGREDIENTS..............
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 (10 ounce) bag washed fresh spinach
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 (15 ounce) container ricotta cheese
2/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
8 slices thick sliced bacon
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until it begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Quickly stir in spinach, and continue cooking until the spinach has wilted. Transfer the mixture into a bowl, and set aside to cool.
Slice through the chicken breast horizontally to within 1/2 inch of one long edge, then open the meat like a book. Place each opened chicken breast in between two pieces of plastic wrap, and pound with a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch.
Stir the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic salt, and onion powder into the cooked spinach until blended. Evenly divide this mixture among the chicken breasts, then roll each into an oblong shape, like a burrito, tucking in the ends. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Wrap each breast with 2 strips of bacon, and secure with toothpicks. Place into the prepared pan.
Bake in preheated oven until the bacon is brown and crispy, and the chicken is no longer pink, 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven, and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before removing toothpicks and serving.
NOTE.... sometimes if i want it a bit spicer... i'll use pepperjack cheese instead of the ricotta.....
Good Eating....................... =)
This is my favorite recipe and my picky boyfriend and friends LOVE IT!!!
Take 1 lb of chicken breast or tenders, which ever is cheaper in the market and cube into aprox 1 inch squares. Season with a light dusting of salt. Then Take about 3/4 a package of your favorite bacon and cut into thirds. In a separate bowl mix about 2 cups of softened light brown sugar and about 2tbsp of chili powder or cayenne pepper. I like both! Wrap each third of the bacon around a cube of chicken with toothpick and dredge in the brown sugar and chili powder mixture, place on to cookie sheet ( I'd suggest using a broiler pan, so the grease and syrup fall onto the bottom, but I don't have one, so I use a cookie sheet). Place in 425 degree oven for aprox 25-30 minutes or until bacon is crispy and chicken is cooked through. BE CAREFUL! If you leave it in for too long or the temp is too high, the sugar will burn and it wont be as sweet. I make this every so often and although it's more of a finger food, it's great for a causal friday night when you want to stay home and watch movies!
Enjoy!
You could stuff it with mushroom pate. It keeps the chicken nice an moist.
