Bacon Wrapped Chicken Breast

For a fancier way to present chicken breast wrap it up in bacon.

I defrosted (speed defrost on my microwave) frozen chicken breasts for 6 minutes.

They were defrosted just enough so I could cut each chicken breast in half

The chicken breasts are easier to wrap when still partly frozen.  Start with the bacon on one end of the chicken  and wrap around the chicken at an angle so it covers the entire piece. You may have to stretch the bacon abit to make it fit; then use a wooden tooth pick to secure the bacon to the chicken.

Set the oven to 425.  Place the wrapped chicken onto a pan that has drain holes, so the bacon fat drips away while baking. These were left in the oven for 35 minutes.  You could set the oven to 350 and leave bake them for an hour if you have more time to prepare supper.

The Bacon wrapped chicken was served on a platter.  I also had some dipping sauces available.

Another option was to cut the wrapped chicken breast into slices and put atop a Ceasar Salad.

I served Romaine lettuce leaves and Bacon Carbonara Pasta (I used a pkg mix this time) with the bacon wrapped chicken breast.

Take a chance and try combining two common ingredients together to create something you will probably ENJOY.
