This is a lovely way to serve three simple ingredients, bacon, mushrooms and chicken, to make a delicious dinner or lunch.
Suggestions:
You could make mini versions of these patties to serve as an appetiser or at a party.

Ingredients:
1 Tbsp olive oil
300 g cup mushrooms, chopped
400 g chicken mince
6 green onions, thinly sliced
2 sticks celery, diced
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup fresh wholegrain breadcrumbs
1/4 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped
6 rashers thin low-fat bacon, halved crossways and rind removed
1 olive oil cooking spray
Directions:
Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes or until moisture evaporates. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes.
Combine the mushrooms, chicken mince, onions, celery, egg, breadcrumbs and parsley in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, mix well to combine. Shape mixture into 12 patties.
Slice each piece of bacon in half lengthways, to form 24 thin strips of bacon. Place one piece of bacon onto a board and top with a second piece of bacon to form a cross. Top with a pattie and fold bacon to enclose the pattie. Secure with toothpicks.
Heat a barbecue plate or non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Spray the patties with oil and cook in batches for 4 minutes on each side or until just cooked through. Remove toothpicks, and serve.
Variations:
Delicious served with jacket potatoes and salad. Serving suggestions not included in nutritional information.
