BACON-WRAPPED ROSEMARY GARLIC CHICKEN WITH LEMON

Steps:

• Slice chicken breast lengthwise so you create 2 cutlets
• Cover each piece of chicken with a sheet of cling wrap and pound with a mallet until very thin (the cling wrap prevents chicken junk from flying everywhere and tearing up the chicken meat itself- basically less mess all around)
• In a small bowl, combine lemon zest, rosemary, and grated garlic (this will be sort of pasty because the grate garlic makes things sticky)
• On one side of each chicken cutlet, spread ½ the rosemary, garlic, lemon paste
• Roll up each cutlet and wrap with 2 pieces of turkey bacon or ham. Secure with toothpicks
• Season outside of chicken roll up with black pepper (and ½ tsp salt, optional, just to bring out chicken flavor a little)
• Heat 1 tsp EVOO in a skillet over medium heat. Brown chicken on each side
• Once browned, add wine to pan. Shake the pan a little while you are adding the wine and for about 30 seconds afterward.
• Allow to simmer about 10 minutes until chicken is cooked through
• Serve alongside your favorite steamed vegetables
