  • 4 spring onions chopped

Method

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 180C and lightly spray an ovenproof dish.

    Return pan to the heat and continue to stir until the sauce boils and thickens slightly. Remove pan from the heat, and pour the bacon sauce over the chicken.

    Garnish with chopped spring onions.

Recipe Notes

Use chicken breast fillets or tenderloins.

I serve this with either mashed potato, rice or hokkien noodles and stir-fry vegetables.
