Chicken Bacon Log

I found this recipe on the internet. There are so many versions of this recipe.  Just add what flavor you would like inside the chicken and roll it up. 

1 lbs bacon
2 chicken breasts (butterflied and pounded flat)
Ham (or any kind of meat- Pastrami is really good)
sliced smoked cheddar cheese (or any kind of cheese- swiss is really good)
fresh spinach leaves

Butterfly the chicken breasts and pound the chicken breasts out flat.

Make the bacon like a basket weave, lay flat

Top the bacon with the chicken breast. If the chicken breasts are small you may need 3.

add a layer of meat.

add a layer of cheese.

add a layer of spinach leaves.

Roll only the chicken breast up to form a log. 

Then roll the bacon around the chicken log.

You may need to trim the bacon if  it is too long for the chicken log.

You can secure it with tooth picks or backing string. 

Heat half the grill to around 350 degrees.  Put the chicken log on INDIRECT heat. If you put it over a flame you will burn your log.

Turn the chicken log every 30 minutes until the internal temperature is 165 degrees.

You can brush BBQ sauce on the last 30 minutes of cooking if you want to add more flavor.  

P.S if you don't want to grill it right away, rap it in tinfoil and put in the freezer. Take it out the day before you are going to grill. 



add whatever insides to the chicken you want.
