Hunters Chicken

This is a quick and easy recipe that can be on the table in about 40 minutes from getting home from work. Utilising store cupboard ingredients its a recipe that can pep up boring chicken breasts into a tasty evening meal, economy wise its pretty good too as it can also be used for emptying the fridge of the last couple of rashers of bacon and that small square of cheese languishing in the back of the fridge.

We always serve this with a rocket salad and if you have hungry bellies to fill a jacket potato would be good too.

What you need

• 2 skinless chicken breasts
• 6 rashers of smoked streaky bacon
• Cheddar cheese - grated

BBQ sauce

• Tomato sauce (homemade in my case)- about 1/2 cup
• Vinegar ( I used homemade blackberry vinegar) - about 1/4 cup
• splash of worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp mustard
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• Salt and pepper
• 1 tsp smoked paprika

Pre heat oven to 180c

• Wrap the chicken breasts with the bacon and place on your baking tray
• Sprinkle with grated cheese and pop in the pre heated oven for 15 minutes
• Whilst this is baking mix all the sauce ingredients together until you have a smooth sauce
• After the 15 minutes have passed, spoon the sauce over the chicken and bake for a further 20 minutes
• Serve with salad and spoon over the excess sauce
