Cheese and Bacon wrapped Chicken on bed of creamed leeks

From gemmaloolaa 15 years ago

Easy dish to create that has the most beautiful infusion on flavours. Will be enjoyed by the whole family alike on a budget.

Prehat oven to 200 degrees c.
Cut chicken fillets lengthways to create an inner pocket.
Mix together the cheese and rosemary and stuff into the chicken pocket.
Wrap the breast in bacon.
Grease or line a baking tray and put chicken on and cover with clingfilm and then a layer of silver foil.
Pop in oven for approx 30 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken fillet, until chicken cooked through.
Put back in the oven ,uncovered, for 5 minutes to crisp bacon.
Prepare the leeks by heating the butter in a frying pan and adding the garlic, onion and leek.
Saute for 2 minutes over a medium heat.
Add double cream/creme fraiche and season to taste.
Put leeks on a plate and top with the chicken.
Enjoy!!

I just made this but with a slight variation. I had no rosemary and simply had the chicken fillet with cheddar inside and bacon wrapped round without anything else but a salad. However i found the addition of salt and pepper before the oven stage really added to the flavour. In the future though i think ill salt and pepper both sides of the chicken and fry it to seal in the flavour, literally 30 seconds on each side. Then continuing by adding the cheese and so on. Thanks very much for the recipe, was a great meal.
