Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
- 4 tbsp cranberry sauce
- 300g/10½ oz gorgonzola cheese
- 24 slices of pancetta
- Italian olive oil
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- For the green bean salad
- 4 handfuls green beans
- ½ lemon, juice only
- 3-4 tbsp olive oil
Recipe Steps
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.
- Place each chicken breast between two pieces of cling film and, using a meat mallet, bash out the pieces until about 0.5cm/0.25in thick. Remove the cling film.
- Spread one tablespoon of cranberry sauce over each chicken breast. Place a piece of gorgonzola in the middle of each chicken breast, season and roll up the chicken to enclose the cheese.
- Place six slices of pancetta, side by side, on a chopping board. Place one chicken breast on the pancetta slices and tightly wrap pancetta around the chicken. Repeat with the remaining chicken and pancetta slices.
- Place the chicken breasts on a baking tray, drizzle with a little olive oil and cook in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until the cheese is melted.
- Meanwhile, blanch the green beans for a few minutes in boiling water and then refresh in iced water.
- Toss the beans with the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Divide the bean salad between four plates.
- Top with the cooked chicken and serve at once
