Ingredients
  

For the sauce

  • Frylight
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp medium chilli powder
  • 500 grams passata
  • 8 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 6 tbsp sweetener
  • 1 tsp mustard powder
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp tomato puree
  • 1.5 tsp Marmite

For the chicken

  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 6 rashers bacon, all fat removed
  • 90 grams 50% reduced fat cheese, grated

Instructions
 

  • For the sauce, spray a medium saucepan with the Frylight, and cook the onion and chilli powder on a medium heat until soft. Once soft, add the rest of the ingredients, bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for around 15 minutes until the sauce has thickened and reduced.
  • Preheat your oven to 200C / Gas 6. Slice your chicken breasts down the middle: not all the way through, just enough to open them out. Place in individual oven dishes.
  • Spoon as much sauce as you'd like over the top of the chicken, being sure to fully coat it on all sides.
  • Lay three bacon rashers over the top of each chicken breast, and put in the oven. Cook for 20 minutes.
  • After 20 minutes, remove from the oven and top each dish with half of the grated cheese.
  • Return to the oven for 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden. Serve with the potatoes and veg of your choice!
