For 4 serving

Ingredients

wooden skewers
600 g chicken breasts
150 g Edam cheese
150 g Hermelín cheese
150 g bacon
all-purpose flour for coating
2–3 eggs
breadcrumbs
salt and freshly ground pepper

Preparation procedure

Clean the chicken breasts and cut into larger cubes. Season the meat with salt and pepper on all sides.
Cut both the Edam and Hermelín into cubes approximately the same size as the chicken.
Cut the bacon into shorter slices or strips.
Alternately thread chicken, cheese and bacon onto the wooden skewers until the skewer is filled.
Prepare three bowls – put all-purpose flour into one, beaten eggs into the second, and breadcrumbs into the third.
Coat each skewer in flour, then in egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. For a firmer, crispier coating you can repeat the coating process once more.
Place the prepared skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and put into an oven preheated to 180 °C.
Bake for approximately 20–25 minutes, until the skewers are golden and the chicken is thoroughly cooked. You can turn them once during baking.
