Chicken breast with bacon
Description
The recipe won't take much time. I highly recommend preparing this dish. It can be used as a meat roll for sandwiches. The meat turns out very tasty. The smoked bacon used here radically changes the meat's flavor. If you simply bake chicken with cheese, the meat will be practically boiled. But the bacon adds flavor, aroma, enriches the chicken, and makes it unique. Serve hot.

Step 6
Roll the fillet into a log so that the skin is on top. There's no need to skewer or otherwise secure it—the meat holds its shape well. Shape a tray from foil and place the prepared meat onto it. Transfer it onto a baking sheet and cover the meat with another sheet of foil on top. This will allow the meat to cook thoroughly while retaining its juiciness during baking.

Brush the skin with vegetable oil. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Bake the meat in the oven for 1 hour.
