OMG!!!! Some of the best chicken I've ever had!!!!
I enjoy cooking and experimenting with food. I had a thought that worked out REALLY well! The recipe follows. This is for one serving so just expand the amounts according to the number of people involved.
Ingredients:
1 Boneless chicken breast pounded flat for stuffing and rolling.
2 TBs cream cheese
1/2 cup minced red onion, shrooms and bell peppers combined.
2 tsp fresh chopped basil.
1/2 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce.
2 slices of bacon.
Combine cream cheese, basil, bell peppers, shrooms and onions. Spread on flattened chicken breast and roll and tuck the ends. Wrap with the bacon strips. Secure with toothpicks. Let it all sit in the fridge for about an hour to allow the cheese mixture to blend and mellow.
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Cook the chicken for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and brush with BBQ sauce. Cook for another 10 minutes. Increase oven temp to broil and remove chicken. Brush again with BBQ sauce and return to oven for 5 minutes. Let stand for a few minutes to allow the cheese mix to set.
As a note I used a Gothom ceramic slotted griddle to cook the chicken as shown in the following image. The slotted surface makes so that you do not have to 'flip' the chicken as there is air flow through the slots of the pan. I LOVE this grill!
