I have been traveling a good bit for work and wanted to try something new. I get bored with plain chicken, so I decided to try this recipe from PaleOMG — which I highly recommend.
Click HERE for the full recipe.
- 4 chicken breasts, butterflied and pounded flat
- 6-8 ounces of button mushrooms, roughly chopped
- 5 strips of bacon
- 4-5 cups fresh spinach
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- salt and pepper, to taste
I, of course, was drawn into it because of the bacon, which makes everything taste better.
I pounded the chicken with my super fancy apparatus — a hammer. I put cellophane over the chicken before pounding.
I cooked the bacon until it got nice and crunchy and chopped it up.
Then sauteed the mushrooms and garlic in a little bit of the bacon grease.
Added in the spinach and bacon — letting the spinach wilt.
Then put the mixture into the butterflied and pounded chicken and secure with toothpicks. Baked in the oven for 20 minutes and sauteed some veggies while it was in the oven. I didn’t have enough squash or asparagus for two so I just made two separate veggies.
And we added a little two buck chuck from Trader Joes! 🙂 This recipe was SO easy and it only took about 40 minutes to make everything happen.
I wanted to leave a mature, thoughtful post, but all I can think of is ‘WOW’!
The description or great and pictures wonderful. When can we eat?
Haha, y’all tell me when!
I can’t even tell you how delicious this looks!
Thank you! You should try it– super easy!
Okay. So I’m thinking, when did my sweet Jillybean get so amazingly smart?
I’m seeing awesome carmalized squash here, terrifically pounded chicken and so much more….and then I remember when. The day she was born.
