Skewered Chicken Spirals

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
4 slices of smoked back bacon
2 tbsp tomato puree
1 garlic clove, crushed
large handful of fresh basil leaves
oil for brushing
salt and pepper

1 - Spread out a piece of chicken between two slices of cling film and beat firmly with a rolling pin to flatten the chicken to an even thickness. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts.

2 - Mix the garlic and tomato puree and spread over the chicken. Lay a bacon slice over each, then scatter with the basil. Season with salt and pepper.

3 - Roll up each piece of chicken firmly, then cut into thick slices.

4 - Thread the slices onto 4 skewers, making sure the skewer holds the chicken in a spiral shape.

5 - Brush lightly with oil and cook on a preheated hot barbecue or grill for about 10 minutes, turning once. Serve hot with green salad.
