I figured I'd try something new last night on the BBQ.
You take boneless, skinless chicken breast filets and flatten them out a bit. I chopped up some jalapeno, and mixed it in with some creme cheese. Put a ball of the mixture in the middle of the chicken breast. Wrapped them up and then wrapped them in bacon with some toothpicks to keep them together.
They can be a bit of a pain on the BBQ, but if you keep any eye on them, it's not all that bad.
Low heat is the key to cook the chicken without burning the bacon. After some trial and error with a a few, I found that using the top warming wrack to crisp the bacon a bit worked good without over cooking the chicken.
I've seen some of those before with ham but those look delicious
Bacon and meat on the grill perhaps even put some cheese and grill it
That or chicken as you used
Thanks for the good idea a good way to make something in the summer while saving a bit of cash
Darn Meat prices won't get in the way when it comes to the grill
Hmmm.... like the ham idea, may have to give that a shot. Think I'm gonna try using Swiss cheese next time. It'll definitely have more of a bite to it. I love cheese that has a sharp flavor to it.
Yeah, meat prices are getting a bit insane this year, luckily my local butcher hasn't passed on much of the cost yet. Making those was pretty cheap. Could definitely be made even cheaper with a cheaper cut of chicken. The fillets are a little pricey, but i had them sitting around and they needed to be used up.
Another dish I like to make is crock pot lasagna. Tonnes of recipes on Google. Makes for really cheap lunches. I'll make it on a Sunday, portion it out, put it in freezer containers, and throw it in the freezer. Take one out in the morning for work and it's usually thawed enough by lunch to warm it up in the microwave easily.
