Ingredients:
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 pack of bacon (approximately 6 slices)
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2/3 cup bread crumbs
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your oven is ready to perfectly cook these delightful roll-ups.
-
Prepare Chicken: Rinse the chicken breasts with warm water and then drain them thoroughly. This step ensures cleanliness and removes any excess moisture.
-
Wrap Chicken: Take each chicken breast and roll it into a compact ball. Next, wrap each chicken ball with two slices of bacon. This step not only adds flavor but also helps keep the chicken moist during baking.
-
Arrange in Pan: Line the bottom of a 13×9-inch baking pan with the prepared bacon-wrapped chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
-
Prepare Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, milk, and sour cream. Blend the ingredients together until smooth and creamy.
-
Pour Sauce: Carefully pour the creamy sauce mixture over the chicken in the baking pan, ensuring each roll-up is generously coated.
-
Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 1 hour. This allows the chicken to cook thoroughly and absorb all the delicious flavors from the sauce.
-
Add Bread Crumbs: After baking for an hour, sprinkle the bread crumbs evenly over the top of the chicken roll-ups. This adds a delightful crunch and texture to the dish.
-
Final Bake: Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes. This final step ensures the bread crumbs are golden brown and crispy.
-
Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the Chicken Roll Ups from the oven. Serve them hot alongside your favorite accompaniments, such as noodles or rice, for a complete and satisfying meal.
Note: Avoid adding additional salt to this recipe, as the cream of chicken soup and bacon already contribute enough saltiness to the dish.
Now, gather your ingredients, follow these simple steps, and treat your family to a scrumptious meal that’s sure to become a new favorite! 🍗🥓✨
