Make tagliatelle from your pasta dough, or use ready-made fresh pasta. Take the pasta machine and clamp it to the work surface.
We've previously put up a detailed article on how you can make your own pasta dough.
Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring it to the boil. Fill a bowl with ice-cold water and set it aside. Chop the shallot and 2 cloves of garlic as finely as possible. Slice a handful of black olives into rings. Skin the tomatoes.
Using a chef's knife, cut a small "x" on the bottom of each tomato. Only cut into the skin, not into the tomato flesh. Dip each tomato in the boiling water for 10 seconds and then immediately place in the bowl of iced water to stop the cooking process.
Remove the seeds from the tomatoes and cut brunoise (dice). Heat 50 ml olive oil in a large frying pan over a low heat. Sauté the finely chopped shallots for 2 minutes, then add the black olives and cook for 5 minutes.
Finally, add the tomato brunoise and season with salt and pepper.
Preheat the oven to a temperature of 200 degrees Celsius. Remove any excess fat and sinew from the chicken breasts. Wrap each chicken breast with bacon, using approximately 5 rashers of bacon per chicken breast. Place the chicken breasts on a baking tray lined with baking parchment.
Bake the bacon-wrapped chicken breasts for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on your oven and the thickness of the chicken breasts. If you like, you can also (before baking) stuff the chicken breasts with a little herby cream cheese. This is not strictly necessary as the antiboise already provides a lot of flavour.
Cook the pasta in a pan of boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes (as you're using fresh pasta it won't take very long to cook). Serve the bacon-wrapped chicken on the homemade pasta and spoon some of the antiboise (sauce) over it.
Really delicious with a glass of red wine. Enjoy your meal!
