Equipment

  • oven
  • knife

Directions

  1. Skin 2 chicken breasts, then cut a pocket in each side and stuff each with 25g/1oz soft goats cheese.
  2. Wrap each breast in 2 rashers rindless streaky bacon, tucking in a few fresh sage leaves, then put the breasts in a baking dish and season. Spoon over 1 tbsp olive oil.
  3. Roast the chicken breasts in a baking dish, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes in a preheated oven (190C/gas 5/fan oven 170C).
