Ingredients

carrot 2 (sliced)
baby potatoes 1000 g (chopped)
Italian seasoning 2 tsp
chicken breast 4
garlic cloves 2 (crushed)
cream cheese 100 g
Finnebrogue naked smoked streaky bacon 200 g
green beans 200 g
white wine vinegar 1 tbsp
honey 1 tsp

Method

Cook the baby potatoes & carrots

Preheat the oven to 220C/200C fan.
Slice the carrots diagonally (no need to peel - just give them a good scrub).
Quarter the baby potatoes, then add them with the carrots to a large baking dish. Drizzle with your preferred oil, sprinkle over most of the Italian seasoning (reserve a teaspoon for the chicken parcels), and season with salt and pepper.
Toss well to ensure they are coated then bake in the oven for 15 minutes.

Prep the chicken & bacon parcels

Crush the garlic cloves, then mix with the cream cheese and reserved Italian seasoning.
Cut a little slit in the centre of each chicken breast and stuff with the garlicky cream cheese. Fold the chicken breast back on itself then wrap in 2 - 3 rashers Finnebrogue Naked Smoked Streaky Bacon. Repeat until all are assembled.

Add the chicken & green beans

Remove the dish from the oven and scatter over the green beans and sprinkle over the white wine vinegar.
Pop the chicken parcels on top. Mix the honey with a dash of oil and brush over the bacon. Turn the oven down to 200C/180C fan. Bake in the oven for another 25 - 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
Plate up and enjoy! Making sure to pour over all the delicious cooking juices from the dish.
