This stuffed chicken in bacon recipe is amazing. It is absolutely perfect for a family meal or to impress people at a dinner party. Syn Free too so even better 🙂 I can high recommend serving with vegetables, boiled new potatoes or rice.
If you want to make this even more naughty you can add your cheddar cheese healthy extra A allowance underneath the bacon.

1/2 Tsp Mild Chilli Powder

METHOD

- 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.
