Homemade Chicken Wrapped in Bacon, with Stuffing and full roast dinner.

This is one of my favourite dishes to cook and to eat. It is a simple dish to cook and prepare, can be done hours or even the night before. It is very filling and can be used as a main, roast dinner, with past or rice or in a sandwich, whatever you want. This recipe is for 4 chicken breasts, so a family of 4.

Ingredients. 
4 medium sized chicken breast (defrosted or fresh)
12 rashers of bacon, I use un-smocked and 3 rashers per breast
A medium box of stuffing, I use Paxo sage and onion stuffing

Method

  1. Lay three rashers of bacon together on a chopping board, so they look like this:

    2. Prepare the stuffing, once done, spread stuffing over the bacon, make it even, do not go all the way to the edges, keep it in the middle. 
    3. Place the chicken breast on the stuffing, and warp the bacon around the chicken.
    4. Repeat with other breasts (or only do one), place into an oven dish and cook on 180C or gas man 4, for 35-40 mins 
    5. I serve mine with roast potatoes and a selection
of veg, it always goes down well and I always get good compliments.


Just a serving suggestion 

Enjoy this recipe as much as I do.

Homemade Breaded Chicken Fillets


This is a really easy and tasty recipe and would recommend it to everyone! It is very quick to do and with very little steps, this recipe is for 4 medium chicken breasts, so lets begin:

Ingredients 
4 medium chicken breasts
2 slices of wholemeal bread (or any bread of your choosing)
1 medium egg
Salt and pepper

Method

  1. You need to start by making breadcrumb, you can by them already done, however it is cheaper and very easy to make your own. Simply break your slices of bread up into a blender, and blend until you get breadcrumbs. Put these onto a plate, or I use a plastic container (such as an take away container), as long as it is big enough to place your chicken in, one piece at a time. 
  2. Next, beat your egg and put onto a separate plate or container, 
  3. Get your chicken and dip into the egg, coating each side with egg, then dip into the breadcrumbs, making sure there is an even coating all around the chicken..
  4. Get a hot frying pan and place a little oil, I use vegetable oil, once hot place the chicken into the pan and allow to evenly brown on each side.
  5. Although you can just pan fry, I prefer to place mine in the over to cook all the way through. Cook in the oven for 20-25 mins at 180C which is gas mark 4. 
  6. Serve hot or cold and enjoy

Serving suggestion

I serves mine with pasta with a bit of tomato sauce and light mayo, with a small side salad. I call this a perfect summers meal, although I eat it all year round.
