Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Thighs Smothered and Stuffed with Awesome

These are pretty much all of my favorite things layered into one extremely satisfying dish. You may have a lot of leftover bechamel sauce; bout a half of a box of cooked pasta will take care of this for you.

Step: 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 9-inch square pan with parchment paper.

Step: 2

Trim asparagus spears to extend 1 inch past each side of the thighs.

Step: 3

Place 1 cup of the mozzarella cheese into a bowl.

Step: 4

Lay chicken thighs flat on a work surface. Place 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese on each thigh, followed by 3 asparagus spears. Roll thigh around stuffing; wrap 1 bacon slice around each thigh. Tie a 12-inch length of string around the bacon, ensuring bacon ends are secured. Place stuffed thighs in the lined pan.

Step: 5

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 30 to 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the middle of a thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step: 6

Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; add jalapenos. Cook, stirring regularly, until juices have evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add remaining butter, melt completely, about 1 minute. Stir in flour until it starts to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in warm milk, 1/3 cup at a time, mixing completely after each addition.

Step: 7

Bring milk mixture to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens, about 7 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Add remaining mozzarella cheese, stir gently to incorporate into sauce.

Step: 8

Cut strings from thighs and smother with sauce.

Avoidance on 2.00 AM snacking and cravings , it is much important to include some easy foods (or what one may perceive as off limits ). It means , if we always order the healthiest thing on the menu but come home and graze on chips, necessary we really will the junk food and should have just enjoyed it in the first place."

When it comes to eat on evening , overeating or eating too much of the bad kinds of food can lead to bad habit on sleeping. On the flip side, a meal that is less than satiating can leave you want more and resulting in reaching for an unhealthy late-night snack even closer to sleep .
