CRISPY BACON WRAPPED STUFFED ZUCCHINI #RSC



Crispy Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Zucchini #RSC image

Ready, Set, Cook! Reynolds Wrap Contest Entry. Bacon makes everything tastes better. Unfortunately the cooking time for bacon is drastically different than most other foods. In order to render the fat out and to make the bacon crispy, most other ingredients will be way overcooked or burned to charcoal. This recipe solves the problem by using Reynolds aluminum foil in a very unique way. This fun recipe is to transform some very common ingredients, Zucchini and ground beef, into a more memorable dish. The plating of this dish shows one serving.

CRISPY BACON WRAPPED STUFFED TILAPIA #RSC



Crispy Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Tilapia #RSC image

Ready, Set, Cook! Reynolds Wrap Contest Entry. I made this recipe for my hubby because he doesn't care much for fish (unless it's breaded and fried). I wanted him to eat a variety of proteins other than just steak and pork, and figured he wouldn't turn down the fish if it had bacon with it. He loved it. ^_^

BACON STUFFED ZUCCHINI



Bacon Stuffed Zucchini image

My mother-in-law's garden was popping out zucchinis the size of newborn babies... one night I concocted this in an attempt to use up one we had in our fridge, and it's now a household favorite! This is very versitile, but different from many of the other "stuffed zucchini" recipes I've seen because it contains NO tomatoes or tomato sauce. You can also easily leave out the bacon to make this vegetarian. This would be a good "clean out your fridge" recipe as you can add/ substract anything you want!

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN STUFFED ZUCCHINI RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Bacon Wrapped Chicken Stuffed Zucchini Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by mjohnmeyer

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 medium to large zucchini
1 pound chicken, shredded
18 slices pre-cooked bacon
2 teaspoons sea salt
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
18 toothpicks

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and set aside. Wash and cut each zucchini in half lengthwise. Using a spoon, carefully scrape out all the seeds and soft membrane down the middle of each zucchini half. Mix the shredded chicken with the sea salt, pepper, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili powder (it combines easier when it's warm and a little moist). Spoon about 1/3 cup shredded chicken down the middle of each hallowed-out zucchini half. Wrap about 3 pieces of bacon around each zucchini half and secure with a toothpick at the top. Place each zucchini half on the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, checking on them after about 13 minutes to be sure the bacon isn't burning. Remove from oven and allow 5 minutes or so to cool.
