Chicken Roulade Recipe – Chicken Bacon Roulade Recipe

I used Wright Brand® Bacon for this roulade..It can be found in walmart at a great value…And it clearly took this dish to the next level..This clearly shows that bigger better bacon is not only meant for breakfast, it can jazz up your lunch or dinner to the perfect level. This roulade can be served as a main course for lunch or dinner along with a side salad and a drink. 

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
