Ingredients

  • 1 bacon strip, cut in half lengthwise
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
  • 2 tablespoons fat-free ranch salad dressing
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped sweet red pepper
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch

Directions

  • In a small nonstick skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until cooked but not crisp. Drain on paper towel. Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness; spread with ranch dressing. Top with mushrooms, red pepper and onions. Roll up and wrap a piece of bacon around each; secure with a toothpick if needed.
  • Place in a shallow 1-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 25-30 minutes or chicken juices run clear. Remove and keep warm. Remove toothpicks.

This is very good with lots of flavor. I have made this several times and everyone always loves it. I omit the mushrooms and don't bother with the sauce. I think the chicken has enough flavor without the sauce and it detracts from the chicken. Great recipe overall!
