I like to eat a good flatbread for lunch sometimes so I’m constantly thinking of different ingredients to top them with…this Crispy Bacon, Shallot & Fontina Flatbread is one of those ideas that popped into my head when I passed the Fontina cheese in the supermarket.

Lemongrass is usually associated with Thai food and it’s got a great flavor. For this dish I marinate the chicken in a lemongrass mixture and then lightly bread it in Panko crumbs – pop it in the oven and it’s done in a jiffy. The salad is prepped while the chicken cooks and the end result is a yummy Lemongrass Chicken Salad… Continue reading
