Hi All,
I haven't had a chance to try this recipe yet, but my Grandmother found it
in a
magazine, and since she knows I'm low-carbing and ALWAYS on the lookout
for a
new way to cook chicken, she called and gave me the ingredients. It
sounds
VERY easy (only 5 ingredients) and I'm planning on trying it for dinner
tonight.
Chicken Breasts, boneless & skinless, pounded to about 1/4" thickness
Cream Cheese Spread with onions & chives (I didn't know they made this
flavored
Having been a regular customer of theirs before I went low carb, Einstein's
Bagel stores have various flavored spreads. One of them was the cream cheese
with onions and chives. Chives are a great idea for an addition to cream
cheese, but adding onions to the mix seemed idiotically redundant, but I
digress. That is likely one of the places she would have gotten it from
though.
variety, if I can't find it at the store, I'll soften regular cream cheese
and
make my own)
Bacon
Salt & Pepper to Taste
Its basically this....pound the chicken to about 1/4" thickness
spread cream cheese mixture, about 2 tablespoons per breast.
Fold chicken breast, or roll
Wrap 1 piece of bacon around chicken (secure with toothpick)
salt & pepper to taste
bake in 400 degree oven for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is done. If
bacon
is still undercooked, broil briefly.
Seems VERY easy and sounds just yummy! Also, I'm sure it could be tried
with
other flavored cheese spreads (like Alouette or Rodelle etc) I'll give it
a
try tonight and post my results.
Enjoy!
