Yes, fea means "ugly" in Spanish. We're facing facts here... This dish is DELICIOUS -- but pretty it ain't!

Ingredients:
One 5-ounce raw boneless skinless lean chicken breast cutlet
3 fresh basil leaves
2 slices center-cut bacon or turkey bacon
Spices: salt, black pepper

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Spray a baking pan with nonstick spray. Season chicken with a dash each of salt and pepper. Lay basil evenly on top of the chicken. Wrap bacon around the basil-topped chicken. If needed, secure with toothpicks.

Bake in the oven until chicken is fully cooked, about 20 minutes.

Set oven to broil, and broil until bacon is crispy, about 4 minutes.

Remove toothpicks, if using. Serve and enjoy!
