Chicken n Cake!

So a friend sent me a link, that I promptly lost, to a very simple chicken meal. How simple? So simple that Rabbit could have done it. BAM!

Whatcha Need

• Chicken breast - I used just over a pound for two nice boobies.
• Half a package of bacon
• Jar o Pesto
• Melty Cheese

Whatcha Whatcha Gonna do Gonna do

• Lay out 3 or 4 strips of bacon
• Split a rather anatomically naughty looking V into the chicken breasts. You can probably do 2 or three per.
• Put that breast on bacon

• Fill those V Bags with Pesto
• Add some cheese

• Wrap the bacon around it. I like to kind of braid my bacon.
• Maybe put more cheese on top.
• Bake at 400 for like 25- 30 minutes. 
• I use a lot of silicone sheets, so mine was at 350 for almost 40 minutes.
• Next time I'm not going to use silicone so I can bake at 400, and then at the very end broil for a few minutes to get things crispy.

We served it with noodles and left over cheesy sauce from a previous post. 

CAKE!!
Rabbit made cake. Rabbit writes about cake. Aaaand GO

Steak Medallions are not Gold Medals for Carnivores

So, to me these are super simple too. And they are probably a little healthier than the Mac n Cheese Biscuits.

Steak Medallions - or Medals for Meat Eaters

Ingredients:

• About a pound of steak.
• Package of bacon
• Choice of sides:
• We did carrots, green beans, and bread.
• About 5 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 Tbsp. of pepper.

Cook it!

Cut your steak into pieces that are about 2 1/2 " or so

I didn't take nearly enough pictures but lets' describe:
I slice the garlic cloves. I get about 4-5 slices per clove.
Place one of these slices against the steak, wrap the steak in a piece of bacon.

So I really forgot to take pictures the other night. Like I've said, I've been busy at work and my brain is fried. But, I covered the steak part. That's easy, right?
After wrapping them in bacon, sprinkle your salt over the top, and toss it in the over at about 375 or so for about 20 minutes. Sorry, these always come out about medium. I blame the bacon being all, pork, and not super safe to eat "rare."

For my sides, well, I'm a simple creature. I like cold carrots. Those are easy.

The green beans? Well, those are more fun. 

Fill your pot with water enough to cover the beans. Throw in the beans, a little left over bacon (I normally have about 2 strips left) and what ever is left of your garlic. I throw them in while the water is heating, by the time it's boiled long enough to cook the bacon, everything else is done. 

The bread? Well, that's bread. Cut it, butter it, toss it in to get toasty while your steak bakes!

Hopefully this week I'll be back into my normal groove and be able to give a few more ideas and better pictures for you all to Eat Too Many with me n Miss Rabbit.
