Cooking with Amber (No Really!)

Hi!

Welcome to Cooking with Amber.

Wait. COME BACK!

Look, I know I can be a crummy cook. Yes, I did set off the fire alarm while making pancakes. But there are some things that I do make well. And one of those things is my bacon wrapped chicken.



So first you get some boneless chicken and pound it. Pretend that it’s an ex-boyfriend/girlfriend’s head. Or pretend that it’s the head of that chick you passed while going grocery shopping who was texting while driving—her knees were controlling the wheel. I’m not kidding. HER KNEES! Basically she was saying, “Lalala, texting to find out who Bippy is bopping is more important than human lives, lalalala.”

Ahem.

I went off in a tangent.

Sorry.

And I just realized that I probably should list the ingredients that you need first.

I’m just as unorganized when I’m cooking.

Anyhow, this is what you need:

Boneless chicken breasts
1 lb bag of mozzarella cheese
Salt
Pepper
Garlic Powder
BACON <-----Yes, needs to be capitalized because bacon rocks

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.



And THEN you can pound your meat.

Okay, that just sounds wrong.



After the meat has been pounded (teehee), you season the chicken. I season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic power.



Then you get some bacon and place it on the bottom of the chicken. I use two slices of bacon because, well, bacon is delicious.



Add the mozzarella cheese and then roll up the chicken.

So it looks like this.



Yum, huh? And easy!

Cook for 45 minutes and believe me, this dish makes your house smell fantastic. It’ll even get the attention of your husband, who has been staring at the computer for two hours. He’ll be all, “Wow, that smells good!” and then you’ll be thinking, “Whew, it lives! Hooray for the power of bacon!”

Enjoy!
