Todays recipe is my husband's favorite. The truth of the matter is you could burn something to a crisp, then wrap it in bacon and it would be delicious. I don't believe anyone who says they don't like bacon, they have just lied to themselves. This recipe is a new take on traditional chicken cordon-blue, and it is so easy!
Ingredients:
Boneless, skinless chicken breast
Bacon
Spinach
Blue Cheese
Sweet Potatoes
You need a chicken breast per person. Take a knife and make a hole in the top, thick part of the chicken. Use your finger to enlarge the hole and make a pocket the length of the chicken so you can stuff it with the yummy ingredients!
Chop up the spinach (I remove the stems), and just stuff a little spinach and then a little blue cheese and repeat into the hole you just made. Get as much in as you can.
Use toothpicks to wrap the chicken breast in bacon, I use 2 pieces of bacon per piece of chicken.
Bake in the oven at 350 for about 20 minutes, just make sure the chicken is done but not dried out, some ovens cook things faster, some slower.
I usually serve this with sweet potato fries. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise and then in half again. Then cut into long fries, the thinner they are the faster they cook. Drizzle olive oil and salt and pepper over them and make sure they are all coated well (this dish gets your hands dirty!). Bake these for about 30-45 minutes at 350 (depending on the thickness), till really crispy. This is so yummy and easy! Yall will LOVE it. Emmett does (and we all know how picky he is :)
