In an era where we are surrounded by complexity every day, there's a treasure in life's simplicity. As the saying goes, "as easy as falling out of a tree... you just skip the branch", there are dishes that celebrate the simplicity of taste and preparation. Here's a recipe I came across recently, perfect for those days when you want a tasty bite before a rugby match.
Ingredients:
1 pack of bacon strips
1 large chicken breast with skin, cut into long pieces
Jimmy's sauce (for glazing)
Preparation:
Start by slicing your chicken breast into long, tender pieces. The skin of the chicken should be left on, as it adds a delightful texture and flavor to the final dish.
Wrap:
Take a piece of chicken and wrap it in a strip of bacon. The skin from the chicken can also be wrapped together with the chicken for an added layer of taste.
Freeze:
Place the bacon-wrapped chicken pieces on a chopping board and put them in the freezer for about an hour. This step is crucial, as it makes the bacon easier to handle when you grill it later on.
Grill:
Grill the bacon-wrapped chicken pieces until they are nice and crispy. While grilling, brush the chicken with Jimmy's sauce for that additional layer of flavor.
Serving:
Serve hot, perhaps with your favorite salad or a side dish of vegetables.
The combination of the juicy chicken, crispy bacon, and the kick from the Jimmy's sauce creates a paradise of flavors. It's a simple, yet powerful dish that will make your taste buds sing.
The next time you're sitting in front of an intense rugby match and you're looking for something quick and delightful to make, think of this recipe. And once you've taken a bite, you'll definitely agree that it was "absolutely delicious!"
