Bacon Wrapped Ranch Chicken Food

EASY BACON-WRAPPED RANCH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Using smaller chicken breasts (about 5-6 ounces each), season each with Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Seasoning Shaker. Starting at one edge and working toward the other, wrap each piece of chicken in 2 slices of thick cut bacon.
• Place seam side down on a baking sheet or ovenproof skillet.
• Bake for about 30 minutes in a 375-degree oven or until bacon is crisp and chicken is cooked through, basting the chicken occasionally with the pan drippings. To make the bacon extra crispy, you can broil the chicken for another couple of minutes.

BACON-WRAPPED RANCH CHICKEN

Steps:

• In the ziplock bag,combine the Ranch packet, olive oil, and vinegar. Mix well.
• In the bag add the uncooked chicken breast and massage the marinade until chicken is covered, put into the refrigerator and marinade for 1-3 hours.
• Pre-heat your grill to high for 5-10 minutes prior to cooking.
• Soak 10-20 toothpicks in a cup of warm water for about 5 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the bag and wrap each breast with 2-3 pieces of bacon using two toothpicks to attach to the chicken.
• When the grill is hot, place the chicken on the grill and lower the heat to Medium-High.
• Cook the chicken for 9 minutes per side turning only once.
• When the chicken is fully cooked, plate and serve remembering to remove the toothpicks.

BACON-WRAPPED CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 6 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook 30 seconds more. Remove the pan from the heat and add the cream cheese, chives and Worcestershire sauce and stir until evenly combined. Season the filling with salt and pepper.
• Halve each chicken breast horizontally, leaving it attached at one side so it opens like a book. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper, then divide the filling among the breasts, spreading it evenly on the inside of each. Close the chicken breasts and sprinkle the outsides lightly with salt and pepper.
• Lay 3 strips of bacon side-by-side on a cutting board and position a chicken breast right-side-up at the end of the strips. Tuck the thinner "tail" of the chicken breast underneath for even cooking, then roll the breast up in the bacon. Repeat with the remaining bacon strips and chicken breasts.
• Set a cooling rack in a rimmed baking sheet and transfer the chicken breasts with the bacon seam-side down to the rack. Bake until the chicken is almost cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the middle of each breast reads 155 degrees F, about 35 minutes. Heat the broiler and broil the breasts until the bacon turns golden brown and crisp, about 5 minutes. Serve hot.

BACON-WRAPPED JALAPEñO POPPER CHICKEN

Steps:

• Wear gloves to protect your hands and use a small paring knife to cut the stem-end off the jalapeño; you should see the white ribs attached to the walls of the jalapeño. Use the paring knife to remove the ribs from the walls. Make a cut down the length of the jalapeño from the top to the tip. Carefully, without breaking the jalapeño in half, scrape out the ribs and seeds. Transfer to a microwave-safe bowl, add 3 tablespoons water, cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave on high power until the jalapeños turn olive green and are lightly softened but are still firm and hold their shape, 2 to 3 minutes. Let cool.
• Stuff each cooled jalapeño with a piece of cream cheese; squeeze the walls around the cream cheese to force out any air pockets and to seal the jalapeño walls together.
• Mix together the cumin, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Pound the chicken lengthwise down the breast to make a rectangular 1/4-inch-thick cutlet. Sprinkle with a quarter of the seasoned salt. Repeat with the remaining chicken and seasoned salt.
• With one of the narrow ends of the chicken facing you, lay a piece of Colby Jack cheese at the bottom of the cutlet. Place 1 stuffed jalapeño crosswise on top of the cheese about 2 inches from the bottom. Tightly roll up the chicken and the cheese around the jalapeño, folding in the sides as you roll. Repeat with the remaining chicken and jalapeños.
• Lay 5 strips of bacon on a clean work surface so that the strips are slightly overlapping (about 1/4-inch) and are wide enough to completely cover a chicken roll. Place 1 chicken roll at the bottom of the bacon blanket. Wrap the bacon tightly over the chicken roll. Repeat with the remaining bacon and chicken rolls.
• Prepare a grill for indirect grilling and heat to medium-high heat.
• Place the chicken rolls, bacon seam-side down, on the cooler side of the grill. Cover and cook until the bacon is beginning to brown and the cheese is beginning to melt and ooze from the sides, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer the chicken rolls to the hot side of the grill and cook until lightly charred, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

BACON-WRAPPED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken bullion cubes, crushed up, the bread crumbs, (or I used 6 pieces of toast, crushed into crumbs) cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Cut boneless, skinless chicken breasts in half long ways leaving one side intact. Insert one slice of the sliced pre-cooked ham and one slice of Swiss cheese into center of each chicken breast.
• Beat the egg in a mixing bowl and coat each chicken breast. Then coat each one in the bread crumb mixture. Wrap two pieces of bacon around each chicken breast, not overlapping.
• Wrap each piece of chicken individually in a piece of aluminum foil loosely so that it can be opened on the top. Place all three in a 13 x 9 inches baking dish. Cook for 1 hour, 15 minutes. It may take less time (again, this was the first time doing this). At that point, turn oven to broil at 400 degrees. Open the tops of each of the chicken pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes to finish cooking the bacon.
