• Servings: 2
• 2 bacon strips, diced
• 1 small tart apple, peeled and coarsely chopped
• 2 tablespoons dried minced onion
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
• 1/2 to 1 teaspoon chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
• 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsweetened apple juice
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper

The chicken breasts that I get at the store are too large for one serving, so I usually fillet into 2 peices. Instead of creating a pocket to stuff, I pound them out and roll up around the filling jelly roll style, anchored with a toothpick(s). Make sure that you blend the flour and apple juice together before adding it to the pan or you will end up with a lumpy mess.
