Fondue Dippers Bacon Wrapped Chicken With Spinach Blanched Vegetables And Apples Recipes

BACON-WRAPPED CHICKEN SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper and use a frying pan to gently pound the breasts to an even thickness. (They should be about 1 inch thick.)
• Combine flour, salt, and freshly ground black pepper in a wide, shallow dish and mix thoroughly. Coat each breast by dredging it in the flour mixture then shaking off excess flour. Wrap one piece of bacon around each piece of chicken and secure with a toothpick.
• Heat oil in a medium, heavy-bottomed frying pan over medium heat. When it shimmers, add chicken breasts and cook until bacon is well browned, about 5 minutes per side.
• Add the juice, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until cider is reduced by 1/3, and chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat and remove toothpicks.
• To make a sandwich, spread mustard evenly on cut sides of bread. Layer half of each endive and apple slices alternately on one piece of bread, top with a chicken breast, drizzle with pan juices, season with freshly ground black pepper, and close sandwich. Repeat to make a second sandwich.

FOIL WRAPPED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the shallots, potatoes and zucchini. Drizzle with the olive oil and mix again. Add the sliced garlic, rosemary and salt and toss to coat vegetables.
• Tear off a piece of foil large enough to hold the vegetables. Place the vegetables on the foil and bring fold up the sides to form a room pouch. Place the foil pouch on a hot grill or in a preheated 425 degrees F oven and roast until potatoes are tender and caramelized, about 25 minutes.
