Instructions
- Line a plate with parchment paper and for each serving place 1 heaping tablespoon of pasta sauce on the prepared parchment lined plate. Place in the freezer for 20-30 minutes.
- Place bacon slices on a foil lined baking sheet and put in a cold oven. Turn oven to 425 degrees and cook bacon for 10 minutes or until half cooked. Remove from oven and carefully place each piece on paper towels to drain grease.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Assemble chicken by placing a piece of cheese and frozen pasta sauce in the middle of the chicken thigh (if pieces are small use two for each serving). Gently roll and secure with toothpicks if necessary. Carefully wrap 2-3 slices of bacon around chicken and secure with toothpicks.
- Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Place wrapped chicken in an oven proof skillet (cast iron) over medium-high heat and cook rotating the chicken so the bacon is cooked evenly.
- Place skillet in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Serve immediately and don't forget to remove the toothpicks!
