Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Brush the capsicums with half the oil. Bake, turning occasionally, for 45 minutes or until the skin is charred and blistered. Place in a plastic bag and set aside to cool. Peel and seed the capsicums. Cut into 2cm-thick strips.
Step 2
Cook the bacon in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for 3-4 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a bowl. Reduce heat to medium. Add the butter and onion to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes or until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute or until aromatic. Add the onion mixture, breadcrumbs, olive, lemon rind and chopped parsley to the bacon. Season with salt and pepper. Mix to combine.

Use a rolling pin to gently pound until 1cm thick. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Top each with some capsicum and 2 tablespoons of breadcrumb mixture. Roll up to enclose filling. Use unwaxed white kitchen string to tie each roll at 2cm intervals to secure.
