I saw a photo the other day of some grilled pork loin wrapped in bacon and thought to myself “I’d really like to try that.” I realized that I didn’t have any of the necessary proteins to complete a dish like that so I started looking for alternatives. What I found was chicken breast and turkey bacon. I’m not a huge fan of turkey bacon but I figured I’d give it a shot anyway. Needless to say, the results were very light and full of flavor. Here’s the process:
Ingredients
1 lb Chicken breast
12 Strips of Turkey Bacon
1 Onion
1 Green bell pepper
1 cup Italian dressing (of your choice)
1/4 cup Honey
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tbsp Cumin
1 tbsp Onion powder
1 tbsp Celery salt
1/8 cup Olive oil
Black pepper to taste
Directions
-Cut your chicken into 12 like-sized cubes/strips (1″ x 1/2″ x 2″)
-Marinade the chicken in the italian dressing, honey, and garlic powder for a solid 8 hours
-Cut the green bell pepper and onion into 1/2″ x 2″ strips.
-Place 1 chicken piece, 1 green pepper piece, and one onion piece on a strip of bacon and roll up. Use a toothpick to hold it together
-Brush on some olive oil (this will help keep the roll moist during cooking)
-Sprinkle the cumin, onion powder, and celery salt on the roll
-Place on grill over indirect heat. Cook for (about) 8 minutes and then turn over and cook for additional 5-8 minutes until done
-OPTIONAL: add your favorite barbecue sauce after turning rolls.
-Remove from grill and sprinkle some fresh black pepper
Looks really good and moreish. I’m just imagining plating up way too many of those and eating them all, nearly at once.
I like this website very much. Its a fun read; more-so than other blogs Ive read. Keep up the good work
I always felt that the more you learn the better you are off. That is about anything in life. Which is why I just started my blog. It is on forex markets, and is not only meant to help others learn. But also to keep a visual journal for myself in case I ever get confused. If you have the chance let me know what you think.
