Chicken Kiev with Bacon and Asparagus

Made this tonight and it was really good!

8 strips bacon
12 asparagus tips (top 2 inches only)
4 large skinless, boneless chicken breasts, tendons removed
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups bread crumbs (coarse if possible)
5 tablespoons butter
Salt and pepper

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.

Sounds good though - I'll have to try to substitute something for the asparagus since DH won't eat it!

Maybe use the thinly sliced chicken breasts, although that does sound like a great stress reliever!!

Sounds good!Chat Icon

That was actually in the recipe I downloaded from FoodTv!! Chat Icon

I will say flattened them as opposed to using thin sliced made for bigger breasts (hee!) which made rolling them REALLY easy - I didn't even need to use toothpicks to keep them together.
