Provided by jdm--x

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h15m

Yield 3-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 skinless chicken breast, per person
cheese, enough for a small amount for stuffing chicken per breast
1 slice bacon, per person
crushed peppercorn (I use peppercorn grinder)
unsalted butter (usually 1-2 slices, chopped into cubes)
2 garlic cloves (crushed)
mushroom (optional)
1 cup chicken stock
double cream
2 tablespoons cornflour (2tablespoons to 1/2 cup of cold water)
1/2 cup cold water

Steps:

  • Take your chicken breasts, cut using your knife on a slant so that you have butterfly wings/pockets. Do this for each individual chicken breast.
  • Wrap in tinfoil and cook for 30mins in oven.
  • Carefully unwrap chicken breasts and stuff pockets with a little cheese then cook for a further 10mins or until cheese is melted.
  • For the sauce, grind lots of black pepper into a medium sized pot with 6-7cubes of unsalted butter (The more butter the better). Melt butter on a low heat.
  • Add in crushed garlic and mushrooms (optional) Cook for a couple of mins until mushrooms are soft.
  • Making sure your still cooking on a low heat, add 1 cup of chicken stock.
  • Simmer for 5mins then add some of your cornflour mix until at the right consistency (Not too watery but not too thick).
  • Add some of the double cream until you feel its nice and creamy. If your sauce has gone a bit watery, add some more of the cornflour mix to get the right consistency again. This might take a while to get right but you will know yourself.
  • Serve your chicken with a slice of bacon on top then drizzle the sauce on top of the chicken. I usually serve this dish with some potato wedges to make a nice, filling meal.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked through before adding the sauce.
  • If the sauce is too thick, add a little bit of milk or cream.
  • Serve the chicken over rice or mashed potatoes.
  • Garnish the dish with fresh parsley or chives.
