I found the chicken popsicle recipe on a culinary site a very, very long time ago, about 5 years ago for sure. Since then, I cook it very often, my men just adore it. White meat goes very well in this recipe for taste and texture, but, of course, dark meat turns out to be much tastier. If you want to diversify your diet, try cooking this dish.

Egg - 1 pc.

Semolina (semolina, couscous) - 1-2 tbsp.

Salt - to taste

Bacon - 40 g

Vegetable oil - 1 tbsp.

Рецепт

1. Cut the fillet into large pieces, chop the onion, put everything in a blender, grind it into minced meat.

2. Transfer the minced meat to a deep bowl.

3. Add semolina or couscous, they will absorb excess water from the minced meat, add an egg, salt and pepper to taste.

4. Knead a homogeneous minced meat, give the semolina time to swell. Refrigerate minced meat for 30 minutes.

5. Divide the minced meat into portions with wet hands, then string it on wooden skewers in the form of kebabs, wrap the kebab with a strip of bacon along the entire length. You can wrap chicken "popsicle" in bacon completely, or you can wrap it lightly, in which case one strip of bacon will be enough.

Now you need to put the chicken kebabs in bacon in the freezer for 30 minutes, so they will keep their shape well. After a while, grease the foil with vegetable oil, cover a baking sheet with it, put the chicken popsicle on it and bake at 200 degrees under the top grill for 30 minutes.

6. Serve the finished bacon-wrapped chicken popsicle with your favorite side dish or a fresh vegetable salad.

7. Very tasty and beautiful in appearance, I recommend!
