    2 Tbsp Quark
    1/2 Tsp Mild Chilli Powder

    Frylight
    Cocktail Sticks


    METHOD

    • Pre-heat the oven to 180c and Spritz a baking tray with Frylight to prevent sticking.
    • With a sharp knife, cut a 4 – 5cm slit into the side of each chicken breast. Do not cut all the way through the chicken.
    • Take a small mixing bowl and add Quark, Garlic granules, Chilli Powder, Basil and season with Salt & Pepper. Mix together.
    • Open the chicken breasts and fill each of them with 1 Tbsp of pesto.
    • Wrap 3 Bacon Medallions around each chicken breast covering the slit. Use cocktail sticks to help keep the bacon in place. These will be removed when the chicken is cooked.
    • Place onto the baking tray and spritz each chicken breast with Frylight.
    • Place into the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
