Hot Honey Bacon Wrapped Pamplona de Pollo 🇺🇾🔥
Ever tried Uruguay’s Pamplona de pollo? 👀 This classic just met its spicy match. Butterflied chicken stuffed with gooey mozzarella, roasted capsicum and olives, wrapped tight in Hot Honey Bacon, baked until juicy, then glazed and grilled until sticky and caramelised. Sliced over creamy mash, it’s minimum effort and maximum flavour.
🛒 INGREDIENTS:
✅ 2 chicken breasts, butterflied and pounded flat
✅ 1 D’Orsogna Hot Honey Streaky Bacon 200g pack
✅ 150g mozzarella, cut into batons
✅ 2 roasted capsicums, peeled and cut into strips
✅ 1/4 cup stuffed green olives
✅ Salt and pepper, to taste
✅ Extra honey, for glazing
✅ Creamy mashed potato, to serve
👩🍳 STEP BY STEP:
1️⃣ Butterfly and pound the chicken breasts flat, then season well with salt and pepper.
2️⃣ Lay the Hot Honey Bacon strips side by side, place the chicken on top and fill with mozzarella, roasted capsicum and olives.
3️⃣ Roll up tightly and wrap in aluminium foil.
4️⃣ Bake until cooked through but still juicy (internal temp 75°C).
5️⃣ Remove the foil, brush with extra honey and grill for 3 to 5 minutes until caramelised.
6️⃣ Slice and serve over creamy mashed potato.
A dish Uruguay has been perfecting for generations, given our own spicy Latin twist. Proof that Hot Honey Bacon can turn a classic into something even better 😏
