Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup of butter, minced garlic, and chopped fresh parsley until well combined.
- Roll the butter mixture into a log shape using plastic wrap and refrigerate it until firm, approximately 30 minutes.
- While the garlic butter is firming up, prep your chicken breasts.
- Butterfly each chicken breast by slicing horizontally through the middle, stopping just before cutting all the way through. Open the breasts like a book.
- Place plastic wrap over the butterflied chicken breasts and gently pound them with a meat mallet or rolling pin to flatten evenly, about 1/2 inch thick.
- Remove the garlic butter log from the refrigerator and cut it into two equal parts.
- Place one piece of the garlic butter in the center of each flattened chicken breast.
- Roll up the chicken breast around the garlic butter, folding the ends in to fully encase the butter within the chicken and form a compact roll.
- Lay out 6 strips of bacon side by side, slightly overlapping, on a cutting board.
- Place one chicken roll at one end of the bacon strips and roll up the chicken in the bacon, ensuring the bacon completely covers the chicken roll.
- Repeat the process for the second chicken roll with the remaining 6 bacon strips.
- Pour the 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese onto a plate.
- Roll each bacon-wrapped chicken breast in the parmesan cheese, pressing gently to make sure the cheese adheres well.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the bacon-wrapped chicken breasts on a rimmed baking sheet, seam side down, to help prevent them from unrolling.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy and starting to brown.
- Allow the bacon and chicken Kyiv to rest for 5 minutes after removing from the oven to let the juices redistribute.
- Serve hot, and enjoy your delicious, keto-friendly dish!
Tips:
- For best results, use unsalted butter to control the sodium levels in the dish.
- Make sure the chicken breasts are evenly sized to ensure they cook uniformly.
- You can use kitchen twine to help keep the bacon wrapped around the chicken breasts while cooking.
- Preheat the oven to ensure even cooking and a crispy bacon exterior.
- Allow the butter mixture to chill in the refrigerator before using, making it easier to handle and insert into the chicken breasts.
