Bacon Wrapped Grilled Chicken Breasts One of my summertime (or anytime) favorites is rolling up the skinless, boneless chicken breast and wrapping it with bacon like a filet mignon, holding it together with a toothpick or two and barbecue it. You can marinate it for extra flavor or pre-boil it a bit do get rid of some of the fat from both bacon and chicken before BBQing.
What I like best about this way, 1) it's different, and presentation is neat; 2) the flavor of the bacon (and or marinate) adds to the piece; and 3) the meat is cooked into a little compact portion that is deceiving, more filling than it looks. Try it! But watch out for the toothpicks. ============= Chicken Alfredo Yield: 4 Servings 8 oz fettuccine 3 tbsp flour 3/4 tsp salt 1/2 tsp pepper 3/4 lb chicken breast 2 tsp olive oil 1 cup milk 2 tbsp cream cheese 1/4 tsp nutmeg 1/2 cup peas 1/4 cup parmesan cheese 2 tbsp scallions, sliced In a large pot of boiling water, cook the fettuccine until tender. Drain and reserve 1/3 cup cooking water. Skin chicken breasts and cut into 1 inch cubes. On a sheet of waxed paper, combine two tablespoons of the flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture shaking off the excess. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil until hot but not smoking over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon flour and stir until the chicken is coated. Gradually add the milk, stirring until smooth. Add the cream cheese, reserved 1/3 cup pasta water, the nutmeg, remaining salt and remaining pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the sauce is slightly thickened and the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the peas and cook, uncovered, just until the peas are warmed through, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large bowl, add the fettuccine and Parmesan and toss to combine. Spoon the fettuccine mixture onto 4 plates, sprinkle the scallions over, and serve. =============== Chicken Recipes - <a href= http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chicken-recipes-mailing-list/ >Chicken Recipes</a> <a href= http://www.worldfamousrecipes.com/chicken-recipes.html >Chicken Recipes</a> <a href= http://groups.yahoo.com/group/world-famous-recipes/ >World Famous Recipes</a> http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chicken-recipes-mailing-list/ http://www.worldfamousrecipes.com/chicken-recipes.html http://groups.yahoo.com/group/world-famous-recipes/ ------------------------ Yahoo!
