I can still clearly remember one of the first dishes we made as teenagers in our school cookery lessons. I raved about it so much when I got home that my mum also started whipping up these incredibly juicy and delicious bacon-wrapped chicken breasts on a regular basis.
I can’t remember the exact recipe from those cooking lessons, but it’s so simple and uses so few ingredients that it’s easy to recreate. This has been one of my boyfriend’s absolute favourite dishes for quite some time now, and we’ve cooked it for friends on several occasions. It’s perfect for a dinner party, as it tastes really good and is also incredibly easy to prepare. Just pop it in the oven and, in the meantime, you can enjoy spending time with your guests. It goes best with pasta and freshly cooked vegetables – but since we’ve been cutting down on carbohydrates as much as possible, the two of us simply eat it on its own without any side dishes.
