Recipe

Wrapped Chicken in Bacon with Hemp Seeds

(for 5 people)

You will need:

5 chicken breasts
5 Cheese slices
5 Back Bacon non-smoked slices (healthier)
2 Tbsp of olive Oil
100 ml of Milk or Buttermilk
Seasoning: Salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, paprika
Hemp Seeds Hearts to finish

Let’s Do it:

Add the olive oil and the milk in a deep Pyrex – this will go to the oven.
Open each breast in the middle, but not all the way. So we have a little pocket
Place each cheese slice inside the breast and close the breast
Wrap the breast with a slice of the back bacon and place them in the pyrex dish
Season all the breasts with whatever season you want. I used those above.
Above each breast, sprinkle the hemp seeds hearts. This will make a crispy top (yum!)
Cover the pyrex with an aluminium foil and place it in the oven at 180 C Degrees (350 F) for 40 Minutes.
After the 40 minutes, take the foil and let it stay in the oven for more 10 minutes.

Serve with Sweet potato chips or/and a salad.

Drink

Pink Flamingo

(my invention)

On a High Ball glass place 3 to 4 ice cubes, put 20 ml of gin and fill with Fendiman’s Pink Grapefruit Tonic Water. Add some drops of lemon juice for a kick. Enjoy!
