1 Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise, horizontally, being careful not to cut right through them. Open out to double the surface area. Lay transparent foil on top and flatten out, using a heavy frying pan. Season the meat, lay the cheese on top and roll up lengthwise. Wrap three slices of cured bacon around each one and fix in place with a toothpick or skewer.
-
2 Fry the chicken in hot butter for about 15 mins.
-
3 For the vegetables: Caramelize the sugar to a light brown in a stainless steel frying pan. Add the butter and melt. Put in the shallots, place a lid on the pan and sweat the shallots on a low heat for 5 mins. Then add the apple slices and briefly sweat with the shallots. Deglaze with wine or stock, put the lid on and simmer for 5-10 mins. until just soft. Add the balsamic vinegar and season.

4 Serve the chicken breasts and vegetables on warmed plates.
