Creamy Chicken and Bacon
This is a recipe that I have made for years when I want comfort food. I no longer know the exact measurements, but it's pretty foolproof.
6 boneless/skinless thighs or breasts
9 pieces bacon
15 pieces dried beef (comes in a jar, usually found in the canned meats section of the grocery store)
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
1/2-3/4 cup of white wine
1/2 onion finely chopped
1/2 cup cheddar cheese
4 tablespoons butter
Salt and Pepper to taste
Place a slice of dried beef on each side of chicken, wrap the chicken and dried beef in a slice of bacon. Set aside
Saute onions in butter
Chop remaining bacon and dried beef and add to the onion saute
Saute over a low heat for a few minutes
Add two cans of cream of mushroom soup and the wine to the mixture and season to taste
Simmmer over low heat for 20 minutes
Add wrapped chicken to a baking dish
Pour sauce over chicken
Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 45 minutes
Serve over rice
You can lower the fat content in the recipe by par boiling the bacon before wrapping the chicken, using low fat cream of mushroom soup and cheddar cheese. Saute the onions in Pam instead of butter.
