1 stick Butter, softened
¼ c. Green Bell Pepper, chopped & patted dry with paper towels
1 T Pimento, chopped
1 T Shallot, chopped
2 T Parsley, chopped
1 T Lemon Juice
Salt & White Pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients for the casino butter & mix well.
Spoon onto plastic wrap and shape into log.
Chill 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Meanwhile preheat oven to 350°.
Pound breast halves to 1/4” thick.
Cook bacon & drain on paper towels.
Break bacon slices in half.
Cut butter into 4 equal “oblong” pieces.
Place 2 pieces of bacon in center of chicken breast & top with 1 piece of casino butter.
Close chicken around filling.
