Chicken Bombs

This is an easy to assemble recipe that elevates the chicken breast to new heights.  The addition of Jalapeno pepper and cream and cheddar cheese is good.... but wrapping bacon on this chicken roll makes it great!


Assemble all your ingredients.


Get your tools ready


Slice each chicken breast in half cross wise.  Five breasts will make 10 bombs.  Hammer your split chicken breasts into 1/4 inch cutlets.  Season with salt and pepper.  You can brush on some BBQ sauce if you want a sweet component to the flavour profile.


Fill your halved and cleaned Jalapenos with cream cheese.



Pile in lots of cream cheese, don't be stingy! 



Place your cheddar! 


Turn upside down on the flattened chicken.

Role up! 



Wrap rolled chicken with two strips of bacon.  You won't need toothpicks, this will all stick together when you bake it off.


Place on a rack in a baking pan ready for the preheated oven.


                                   


Cook for twenty minutes on 400F then ten minutes at 350F 


Then pop into the broiler to crisp up the bacon! 



There it is .............. perfection! 











Plate and serve! I paired this with Mushroom Truffle Oil risotto!


You can also brush on some BBQ sauce for the broiler portion if you like.

Flank Steak Sandwich

Flank Steak off the Grill is great on the plate, but when you slice it thin and make a French Bread Sandwich out of it, you have a fabulous lunch time treat.


Get everything ready to go.  Caramelize some onions or saute some mushrooms, whatever you like to have on your sandwich.  You also need a nice fresh baguette to make this great. 


Make sure you slice your perfectly grilled Flank Steak across the grain and on the bias.  You want your grilled meat to be tender not stringy.  Pile that sliced Flank Steak on your baguette, more is always better!


Get some salad on your sandwich!! 


Load the sandwich up any way you like!!


Season your sandwich! 


Anticipate the greatness!!!!!!!! 


Serve!!!!!
This sandwich goes great with the perfect French Fry!
