Tonight after getting in from a really boring day at work, instead of doing the normal basic dinner like pies and potatoes, stew, chicken with a few veg or spag bol.. I decided to be a bit daring and experimental.
I had 1 small bag of 'steam in the bag' mixed veg (couple bits of broccolli, a few slices of carrot and some sweetcorn)
2 frozen chicken fillets and a pack of bacon.
In the fridge I found a tube of garlic puree, a little left over from the block of mild cheese and half a tub of philidelphia.
I decided to heat the bag of veg, and mix some garlic puree, grated cheese and the philidelphia altogether with it.
I was just making it up as I went along! :o
Then butterfly cut the chicken, and laid out 3 rashers of bacon next to eachother on some foil and laying the filleted chicken breast on too.. and topped with the 'cheesey veg mix' before rolling it up so the outside was wrapped in the bacon.
Each 'chicken/bacon roll' was wrapped in foil like a little parcel.
I cooked them for 35 mins on 190 degs in the oven and opened the parcels for the last 10 mins to crispen up and brown.
Serving with green beans.. and roast potatoes.. I laid them ON the bed of green beens and potatoes arranged into a line! LOL I was having so much fun and the plate look great it felt such a shame to eat them., if I may say so myself. PMSL
Ali was impressed I could tell.. and I was pleased how they turned out but didnt think twice about it. Until he said.. what have you been doing? looking up cooking recipes on the net? I said no, and he replied.. " well you must have.. how did you come up with this Culinary Masterpeice?" :wink2:
WOO HOOOOOO :biggrin:
Usually trying to get appreciation for cooking is a 'no no' from him because he HATES COOKING WITH A PASSION. The most I ever get is.. yeah it was nice...
Anyway... I am so chuffed I just had to tell someone.. :biggrin:
Made anyone hungry? LOL
