Steps to make Chicken stuffed with Mozzarella and Pesto, Wrapped in Streaky Bacon:
- Preheat the oven to 200C/175C with fan
- Lay the chicken breast flat on a cutting board. Carefully, having the knife facing away from you, slice open the chicken breast, but be careful not to cut through the other side! Spread a generous amount of pesto on the chicken breast, followed up 2-3 slices of mozzarella (don't be stingy here, really load them up!).
- Close the chicken breast around the filling, and wrap 2 pieces of streaky bacon tightly around the chicken, tucking the ends of the bacon into itself.
- Repeat with the following three chicken breasts.
- Place the chicken onto a cookie sheet wrapped in tin foil. Sprinkle them lightly with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink and the juices run clear.
- Serve with the veg and carb of your choice!
- NOTE: In hindsight, I would put the chicken breasts in a pan first, searing the bacon about 3 minutes each side. Then I would transfer them onto a cookie sheet, and cook them in the oven!
Cut a pocket into the chicken breast fillet, and stuff it with slices of cheese, sun dried tomato and lashings of basil pesto. Spread pesto sauce over the chicken breast, and roll the chicken breast in a slice of bacon, securing the roll with toothpicks. Arrange the bacon slices in groups of two, forming a cross shape. Top with the chicken breast and season with salt and pepper. Spread the cream cheese and mozzarella cheese on top of chicken.
