Chicken is one of my favorite foods and most of the world. Of course, this is a recipe for celebrations dinners!!! The tastiest chicken you’ve ever had and easily can be turned into a light version one.
You can even cook it a day before and with a simple heating in the oven it becomes a dish of the day again.
A recipe for the whole family

It’s an easy recipe, but it takes a little more time in the kitchen. But when you try it, you “will lick your fingers” (as we called in Greece) and it will become your favorite recipe too!!!
Tip: Check off the ingredients you have used in the recipe or note the ingredients you have and add the rest to you shopping list to buy them. - Attention: All ingredients must be checked that are Gluten-Free and without traces of gluten.

Directions
In a large pot, boil the chicken with water.
When it's ready, take it out of the pot and letting it cool down a bit. Debone it and roughly chop it. (it's easier with your hands).

Then add the bacon and sauté until takes out all its aroma.

Bake it at 180°C/350°F, for about 40 minutes, until the gouda melts and takes a golden brown color.
- Serve it with pilaf rice (for the easy recipe click here)
- Prefer homemade light mayonnaise (for recipe click here).
- To make this dish lighter, just replace the bacon with smoked turkey. Choose strained yogurt with 2% fat. Remove or reduce mayonnaise or use a light mayonnaise. Reduce the butter in half and choose all your cheese to be low-fat.
- Use the broth from the boiled chicken instead of water to make the rice pilaf that you will serve it together.
- You can do the preparation a day before: boil and keep the pieces of chicken in the fridge. Sauté the bacon, mushrooms and peppers and store them also in the fridge. Make the yogurt mixture and leave it in the fridge. So, the next day you will have to combine all this and bake it. I usually cook it all, a day before and about an hour before eating I warm it in the oven at 100°C/210°F and it becomes out freshly cooked.
Good Luck and Bon Appétit!!!
