Stuffed Chicken with Pepper Bacon

Stuffed Chicken
Pepper and Ricotta Stuffed Chicken Wrapped in Pepper Bacon

This is an awesome dish, which is pretty simple to make. I placed the finished Stuffed Chicken on top of a bed of Creamed Spinach.

Creamed Spinach

First, for the Creamed Spinach you will need to make a basic Bechamel (White Sauce). First make a roux (1 tbsp butter + 1 tbsp flour.) heat the butter until it begins to melt then add your flour. Once a paste is made you have your roux. Then add 2 cups of milk and salt, pepper and garlic powder. Once the sauce starts to boil, it will be thickened and done. Stir often. You can heat a 1 pound bag of frozen spinach in the microwave and stir it into the Bechamel Sauce. Boom. Done. Awesome!

Stuffed Chicken Wrapped in Pepper Bacon

Now you cut two Chicken Breasts into three pieces each. Cut a slit or pocket into each portion. Fill the pocket with Ricotta Cheese. Slice a Green Pepper into six pieces lengthwise. Microwave them for a minute so they get a little soft and won’t fight the Bacon when being wrapped.

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Wrap the Stuffed Chicken and Pepper with your Pepper Bacon. (Regular Bacon will work just fine). Place in an Oven Safe Frying Pan and lightly brown on each side. Then place the frying pan (with the chicken still in it!) into the oven for 30 minutes.

Finally, Place the finished Stuffed Chicken on top of a bed of your Creamed Spinach.

Enjoy!
