Ingredients

4 chicken breasts , skin on
8 slices streaky bacon
1 garlic clove , crushed
juice ½ lemon
3 tbsp natural yogurt
3 tbsp olive oil
50g parmesan , plus extra to serve

Steps:

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Season the chicken and place in a snug roasting tin. Drape the bacon around the chicken and roast for 15-20 mins until the bacon is crisp and the chicken just cooked through.

Discard the outer leaves of the lettuce and tear the rest over a platter, mixing gently with the dressing. Serve with the chicken and crisp bacon, shaving over extra Parmesan, if you like.
