BBQ Chicken Wraps with Bacon and Cheddar topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 220g each)
- 3 strips of bacon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large biscuit bun with sour milk, flattened (about 1 cup)
- 2/3 cup grated sharp cheddar
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- Vegetable oil to grease the grill
- 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
Preparation:
- Preheat grill to medium heat.
- Prepare the chicken:
Holding a knife parallel to the cutting board, cut each chicken breast in half horizontally, without cutting all the way through; open it like a book. Cover with plastic wrap and pound to a thickness of 1 cm.
- Prepare the filling:
Fry the bacon in a skillet until crisp; crumble. Mix 2 tablespoons of bacon drippings in a bowl with melted butter. In a separate bowl, combine the crumbled biscuits, bacon, half of the drippings, cheese, chives, and parsley. Add 2-3 tablespoons of water and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Season the chops on both sides with salt and black pepper and brush with the remaining rendered fat. Place the filling on top, leaving a 2 cm border around the edges. Roll up toward the pointed end and tie with 3 pieces of kitchen twine.
- Brush the grill grate with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken rolls, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 18-20 minutes, brushing with barbecue sauce 2 minutes before done. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes, then remove the twine and slice the rolls.
