SPANISH CHICKEN WITH BACON AND OLIVES
My husband dug out "What's for Dinner" by Maryana Vollstedt and combined 2 recipes to come up with this really tasty dish. It makes great leftovers and I was amazed how tender and juicy the chicken breast remained. I love the smokiness that the bacon imparts. I have made this recipe with both tomato sauce and paste, and I have to say I prefer using sauce. Use whatever you prefer.

- Top with bacon slices.
- Bake uncovered for about 60 minutes.

- Chicken should be done when juices run clear.
