- 8 rashers streaky bacon
- 4 Tbsp cream cheese
- ¼ cup of tasty cheddar cheese
- 8 dried apricot halves
- 2 spring onions
- 1/4 tsp dried mixed herbs

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180C
- Roughly chop the spring onion and apricot halves.
- In a bowl mix together the two cheeses, the spring onion, apricot, mixed herbs, salt & pepper.
- Cut each chicken breast in half by slicing through the breast effectively making 2 breast pieces half the original thickness.
- Pound each breast piece until it is approximately 1/2cm thick.
- Lay each breast piece on top of two bacon rashers, so that the longest length of breast lays across both the rashers.
- Place 1/4 of the cheese mix length ways down the middle of the breast.
- Roll up each piece and secure with a couple of tooth picks.
- Bake in the oven for approx 30mins before turning up the heat to 220C for 5 mins to crisp up the bacon.
- After that time turn the chicken over for an additional 3 minutes to crisp up the other side.
- Serve with a delicious salad.
