Recipe of the Day - Paleo Bacon Wrapped Spinach Stuffed Chicken

The below chicken dish was a hit in our house this evening.  I cut one of the breasts in half so you could see how colorful and pretty the inside is!  We paired the chicken with some steamed broccoli with butter and frozen grapes for dessert.  :-)

 Ingredients:

• 4 large chicken breasts
• 8 slices of bacon
• 1 bunch of fresh spinach
• 1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
• 2 shallots, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• black pepper
• sea salt
• 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Pound chicken pieces fairly thin.  Season the inside of the chicken with some black pepper and a wee pinch of sea salt.  Heat skillet with olive oil and saute garlic, shallots, and red bell pepper.  Add spinach....toss all ingredients until it cooks down.  Place spinach filling along the inside of the chicken breasts.  Carefully wrap chicken breasts around the spinach filling (its okay if the filling spills out a bit).  Wrap bacon slices around the chicken breasts (I used two slices for each breast).  Secure with a toothpick, if needed.  Bake for 30-35 minutes.  Remove chicken breasts and turn on the broiler.  Now broil the chicken breasts for about 5 minutes on each side, until the bacon is nice and browned.  Yum....super tasty!  :-)
