Chicken In Mustard Sauce With Leeks - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
8 ounces leeks
pepper
8 slices streaky bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon mustard powder
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
freshly chopped parsley (to garnish)

Preparation

Wash and cut the leeks into rings and reserve. Cut the pieces of chicken in half crossways and season with pepper.
Then remove the rind from the bacon and lightly cook the slices in the oil in a large nonstick frying pan over a low heat.
Stretch out each slice of bacon, using the back of a knife, and then wrap one around each piece of chicken. Secure each slice with a toothpick.
Place the chicken in the frying pan and stir in the mustard powder and the plain flour.
Cook for 1-2 minutes, then stir in stock and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and add the leeks.
Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes until the leeks are tender. Garnish with parsley and serve.
