Ingredients

4 boneless chicken breasts

12 smoked pancetta slices

1 Fresh lemon

20-30 Cherry tomatoes

4 tablespoons Paprika

2 tablespoons mixed herbs

Extra virgin olive oil

Salt & pepper


Directions

Put the paprika, mixed herbs and a generous grinding of salt and pepper onto a plate. Mix together, and roll each chicken breast until covered (add more if needed). Wrap 3 slices of the smoked pancetta around each breast, securing with cocktail sticks if needed. Place in a large roasting tray with the cherry tomatoes. Cut the lemon into 4 and squeeze the juice over, placing the quarters in the tray as well. Drizzle a good glug of olive oil over the top and give the tray a shake to make sure all ingredients have a covering. Bake in a preheated over at 180-190 degress for about 40 minutes. Move all around and turn chicken half way through cooking. I like to serve this with baby new potatoes and asparagus that have both been cooked with a bit of butter and lemon.

Delightful dish. Enjoyed the blend of herbs, not too spicy, just right. Prepared at 350 for one hour.
