Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the kale for 4 mins until tender. Rinse under cold water, squeeze dry with your hands, then whizz in a food processor with the lemon zest, mascarpone, garlic and seasoning.

  • step 2

    Cut a long slit in the side of each chicken breast, open it up and stuff with the creamy kale. Gently stretch each rasher of bacon and wrap three around each chicken breast.

  • step 3

    Toss the vegetables with the oil on a baking tray. Nestle the chicken on top, season and bake for 20-25 mins (depending on the size of the breasts), giving the veg a stir halfway through. Check the chicken is cooked, then place on a plate to rest, covered with foil. Cook the veg for 10 mins more, then serve with the chicken and lemon wedges.

I made it yesterday and it was good :) but I checked carbs in my app Fitatu and it was little less :) do you calculate calories on your own or use some app?

Overall delicious but the veg need at least another 30 minutes in the oven or to be par boiled as even though I sliced them thinly some of the parsnips were still raw in the middle

the chicken and stuffing was really yummy, but the veg took a lot longer to cook and where far to filling with the chicken. This would work better with a lighter side like a salad or peas

We all enjoy this recipe. Kids back at school today so this is on the menu tonight to sooth the pain. Looking forward to a nice but easy family meal

I made this tonight with low fat mascarpone and it was gorgeous - but it serves 4 so that's still only just one tbsp per person. It was delicious!
