A CHRISTMAS FEAST<br />

WITH A TWIST<br />

This year we decided to try a new Christmas menu, one with a little twist. Dished up<br />

in beautiful little dishes available from Westpack you can put an extra little Christmastouch<br />

to this feast table. Chef Evelyn Hattingh prepared the dishes and we had so much<br />

fun tasting and new crazy ideas for Christmas just popped out from everywhere on her<br />

beautifully decorated table.<br />

FETA AND PEPPADEW CHICKEN WRAPPED IN BACON<br />

4 – 6 pieces of chicken breasts, 1<br />

bottle peppadews chopped up, 1<br />

container plain Feta cheese, 1 pack<br />

streaky bacon, salt and pepper and<br />

chicken spices to taste, foil and<br />

toothpicks.<br />

Take the chicken breasts and cut<br />

them in half from the side of the<br />

breast leaving you with a butterfly<br />

effect. Sprinkle salt, pepper and<br />

chicken spices onto the chicken.<br />

Crush the Feta cheese until fine and<br />

mix the peppadews with the Feta.<br />

Put the chicken on a piece of foil big<br />

enough to cover the chicken.<br />

Open the chicken so that the flat<br />

chicken is in front of you, add about<br />

two tablespoons of the Feta and<br />

peppadew mixture onto the chicken,<br />

then roll the chicken, with the filling<br />

inside up until it looks like a sausage.<br />

Wrap the bacon around it and pin<br />

it with toothpicks so that the filling<br />

does not fall out.<br />

Cover it with foil and close the ends.<br />

Let it rest for about 10 minutes.<br />

Preheat the oven to 180°C, place the<br />

wrapped chicken on an oven pan<br />

and bake for about 40 – 45 minutes.<br />

Remove, cut and serve.<br />

This dish is well complimented with<br />

a sweet chilli mayo sauce or sweet<br />

sauce.<br />
