Paleo Bacon And Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• In a frying pan, cook bacon until almost crispy.
• Steam asparagus tips for 3 minutes.
• Using a mallet, or other blunt instrument (the kind you keep beside your bed to ward off mad burglars), flatten chicken breasts by placing them, 1 at a time, between 2 sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap, and pound to 1/4-inch thickness.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In 3 separate bowls place: flour, eggs, beaten and bread crumbs. Line the 3 bowls in a row.
• Complete the following procedure for each portion:
• Take 1 flattened chicken breast, season with salt and pepper. Lay 2 strips of bacon side by side, on the top side of the chicken breast. Place 3 asparagus tips crosswise at 1 end and top with 1 tablespoon butter.
• Starting at the end with the asparagus, roll up chicken like a carpet around the bacon, butter and asparagus, and tuck in the loose ends underneath.
• Dip rolled chicken in the flour, then the egg, and then the bread crumbs, covering thoroughly at each step. Place in a shallow pan with the seam on the bottom. Place 1/4 tablespoon butter on top of each piece of chicken. Bake for approximately 20 minutes, or until cooked throughout. Towards the end, baste with pan drippings.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, bring 1/2 in. of water to a boil. Add asparagus; cover and boil for 3 minutes. Drain and immediately place asparagus in ice water. Drain and pat dry., Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness. Spread mustard over one side of each chicken breast. Down the center of each, place two sage leaves, a cheese slice, ham slice and four asparagus spears. Fold chicken over asparagus; secure with toothpicks., Preheat air fryer to 325°. Place flour and egg in separate shallow bowls. In another shallow bowl, combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Dip chicken in the flour, egg, then bread crumb mixture., Place chicken in a single layer in greased air fryer; spritz with cooking spray. Cook until chicken is no longer pink, 15-20 minutes. Discard toothpicks.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
• Place each chicken breast between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch. Sprinkle each side with salt and pepper.
• Place 4 spears of asparagus down the center of a chicken breast, and spread about 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese over the asparagus. Repeat with the other chicken breast, and roll the chicken around the asparagus and cheese to make a tidy, compact roll. Place the rolls seam sides down in the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle each with about 2 tablespoons of bread crumbs.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the juices run clear when pricked with a fork, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400º F.
• Line baking sheet with heavy-duty foil.
• Pound out of the chicken to approximately 1/2" thickness.
• Place chicken and pesto in medium bowl; toss to coat.
• Cut asparagus to approx size of chicken roll (so that the asparagus will not peep out too much from the end).
• Place olive oil and Italian seasoning in a shallow pan or ziplock bag and toss asparagus until coated well.
• Place 3 asparagus spears and top with parmesan cheese.
• Roll chicken around asparagus and wrap each roll with a bacon strip (2 if necessary to get good coverage).
• Place, seam side down, in lined pan.
• Bake, uncovered, at 400ºF for 35-40 minutes or until juices run clear.
• Broil 6 inches from the heat for 3-5 minutes or until bacon is crisped.
• Enjoy.
