Make them!

1. Preheat the oven to 190C and have 2 large pieces of foil ready.
2. Place each chicken breast in a sealed see-through bag then add the seasoning or paprika and smother it around. Bash them with a rolling pin to flatten down slightly.
3. Make a slit in each across the side. Add a couple of tomato slices then Mozzarella. Wrap 2 x bacon rashers around each then place on the foil. Place on a baking tray then bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and cooked through. Then serve! 

Tips and Suggestions

• Prepare this ahead of time if you need to save some prep time. Stuff the chicken and wrap it in bacon, cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours before cooking time.
• Do not use thick cut bacon for this recipe, as it will take longer to get crispy in the oven.
• If you want to put these chicken fillets on the barbecue for a more authentic smokey flavour, slice the chicken the lightly beat it with a mallet. This will make the chicken thinner and will allow the meat to cook more evenly. Prepare the rest of the recipe as usual.
