Provided by Brad Sorenson

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 bottle light-bodied dry red wine, such as Pinot Noir or Beaujolais
2 shallots, sliced
2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
Small bunch fresh basil
2 cloves
1 dry bay leaf
1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons cold butter, diced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, about 1 pound, preferably organic, trimmed and squared off a bit
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
16 slices bacon, not thick cut, from 16-ounce package
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed Meyer lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups baby arugula, 2 ounces, trimmed and washed
1 small fennel bulb, thinly sliced, 1 1/2 cups
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 (1/4-inch) thick slices pancetta, 4 3/4-ounces, diced, 1 cup
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 1/3 cups Arborio rice, 9-ounces
1/2 cup white wine
3 cups chicken stock, heated
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1-ounce
2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese, 1 1/2-ounces
1-ounce goat cheese
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Sauce:
  • In a medium saucepot, over medium heat, combine the wine, shallots, and garlic and bring to a simmer. Add the basil, cloves, and bay leaf, and let simmer until the liquid is reduced to about 1 cup. When reduced, add the chicken stock, and continue to simmer until reduced by half. Strain into another sauce pan and stir in the butter. Season the mixture with salt, and pepper, to taste. Keep warm.
  • Chicken:
  • Season the chicken lightly with salt, and pepper, to taste. Lay 4 slices of bacon crosswise on a cutting board with the slices slightly overlapping. Put a chicken breast on top of the bacon. Bring the bacon slices up and around the chicken so the entire breast is wrapped. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts and bacon.
  • In a large oven-proof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Get the pan and oil hot, and then add the bacon-wrapped chicken and cook until the bacon is crispy on both sides, about 8 minutes per side. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake, until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Salad:
  • Whisk together the lemon juice and olive oil. Season the salad with salt, and pepper, to taste. Put the arugula and fennel into a large bowl and toss until well coated.
  • Scoop some risotto nicely into the center or each plate, making sure it has some height so the chicken can stand up. Cut the chicken on a bias and put on top of the risotto. Drizzle some of the red wine sauce around the plate and directly over the chicken. Top each plate with some arugula salad and serve.
  • Serving suggestion: Three Cheese Creamy Risotto, recipe follows.
  • Heat a large pot (wider is better than taller) over medium heat and add the olive oil and pancetta. Cook the pancetta until it begins to crisp, and then add the garlic and shallots. Cook the shallots and garlic until they begin to brown in color. Add the rice and stir well to coat. Cook the rice for 1 minute.
  • Add wine and stir well. Stir the rice until the wine is almost completely absorbed. Add in some chicken stock until rice is just covered and stir again until the stock is absorbed into the rice. Continue to gradually add the stock, stirring well after each addition, until the rice is cooked through, but still has a bite. You may not use all of the stock.
  • When rice is cooked, stir in the cheeses and basil. Remove from heat and stir in the butter. Season with salt, and pepper, to taste. The risotto should be smooth, creamy, rich, and delicious.

CREAMY BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN



Creamy Bacon Wrapped Chicken image

I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but I've had it for years. This is one that my kids request when they come over for dinner. I've used onion and chive cream cheese with great results too. I'm guessing that this could also be made in a crockpot.

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU WITH A CREAMY MUSTARD WINE



Bacon Wrapped Chicken Cordon Bleu With a Creamy Mustard Wine image

This is my version of Chicken Cordon Bleu. Just a bit different. I love the original recipe, but didn't like it with a bread coating every time. So for me, the gruyere adds just a notch up, the hickory bacon and then a simple mustard white wine sauce makes a very elegant dinner. Serve with some very simple wild rice or rice pilaf and green beans. Nothing fancy needed for this. VERY Classic eats.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 chicken breasts, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 chicken breasts, pounded thin
4 slices prosciutto ham (or you can use any good baked ham)
3/4 cup gruyere cheese, shredded (or you can use 4 slices of swiss)
8 slices of hickory bacon (don't use thick sliced, just regular)
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup diced onion (I prefer shallots, but a regular onion will work fine)
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine (if you don't want to use wine, just use all chicken stock or broth)
3/4 cup heavy cream (or you can use evaporated milk or even light cream and even milk, I just like the consistency of hea)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (I love to mix dijon and ground mustard but if you only have dijon, that if just fine, If you like mo)
1/2 teaspoon fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Chicken -- Now you can buy your chicken breasts scallopini and pounded for you, and pay a pretty price. Or you can just buy a "regular" chicken breast and put them between some saran wrap and pound away. I use a meat mallet, but use a rolling pin or a can of vegetables, brick, back of a frying pan or pot. Anything will work. Just pound thin.
  • Stuff the chicken -- season well with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Then then lay a slice of the ham down and then some shredded gruyere or slices or swiss cheese. Either works just fine and then roll up. Wrap 2 slices of bacon around the chicken roll and secure with a tooth pick.
  • In a oven proof saute pan melt the butter and olive oil and bring to a medium hight heat. Then add the chicken and saute on each side until lightly brown, and the bacon begins to get crisp. Then transfer the chicken to the oven to finish cooking at 400 for about 10-12 minutes is all. Just makes sure the bacon is crisp and done. It doesn't take long. Remove and transfer to a plate and cover. It will continue to cook.
  • Sauce -- get everything ready. This is a quick sauce. Once the chicken comes out just transfer the pan back to the stove top. On medium heat, add the onion to the pan and cook just a minute. Add the wine, broth and let reduce just a minute or so. Reduce the heat and remove when you add the cream, mustard and seasoning and herbs. Return to the heat and just stir and let reduce just a bit on medium low and heat to combine all the ingredients and naturally thicken. It takes 3-4 minutes if that.
  • Dinner is served -- chicken is done and sauce is perfect. Serve the chicken roll with the creamy mustard sauce. As I said, I love some wild rice or rice pilaf with the sauce and some green beans on the side, but use anything you enjoy.

BACON-WRAPPED CHICKEN BREASTS IN CREAMY SAUCE



BACON-WRAPPED CHICKEN BREASTS IN CREAMY SAUCE image

Categories     Chicken     Bake     Low Carb

Yield 12 portions will serve 6 to 8 people.

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 whole chicken breasts
24 square slices of thin-sliced lunch meat such as pastrami or ham
12 slices bacon (thin-sliced)
1 cup lowfat or non-fat sour cream
1 can Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup (Healthy Choices works as well as original recipe)

Steps:

  • Remove skin and bones, and separate each chicken breast into 3 servings. Pound lightly, if desired, to flatten thicker parts. Arrange two slices of lunch meat so they overlap slightly, and place a chicken portion on top. Roll up making the portion narrow and fat, rather than wide and thin. Lay out a slice of bacon, and roll the roll over it, to wrap it about 2 times. Lay in small baking pan with end of bacon on the bottom (no need to secure the ends with toothpicks). Repeat with remaining meats, and pop into preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Skim off fat from pan. Mix sour cream and mushroom soup, and spooon over the top, covering completely. Bake another 30 minutes, until nicely browned and bubbling in center of pan.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the best choice for this recipe. They are evenly sized and cook quickly.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the chicken breasts. This will help you get even slices that will cook evenly.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is best when it is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooking will make the chicken dry and tough.
  • Use high-quality bacon. Thick-cut bacon will give you the best results. It will be crispy and flavorful.
  • Don't crowd the pan. When cooking the bacon, don't crowd the pan. This will prevent the bacon from cooking evenly.
  • Use a non-stick skillet. This will help prevent the chicken and bacon from sticking to the pan.
  • Use a creamy sauce. A creamy sauce will help to keep the chicken and bacon moist and flavorful.
  • Serve immediately. Creamy bacon-wrapped chicken is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Creamy bacon-wrapped chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a meal that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give creamy bacon-wrapped chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
