Chicken and Beef Misto

Preheat the oven to 400°F (hot)

Grease a medium-sized baking dish with olive oil. Reserve

In a small bowl, combine salt, parsley, thyme, garlic, and pepper, mixing until you get a paste. Reserve

On a flat surface, arrange some chicken fillets on top of each other, forming a rectangle approximately 12 cm x 25 cm

Spread a little of the reserved paste over the chicken

Cover with some beef strips and spread a little of the paste over the beef

Repeat the layers two more times, always intercalating the meats with the paste

Finish with a layer of chicken

Cover the top and sides with bacon, forming a package

Tie with twine to maintain the shape

Place in the prepared baking dish and cover with aluminum foil

Bake in the preheated oven, occasionally moistening with water, until tender (approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes)

Remove the foil and untie the twine

Transfer to a serving platter

Prepare the sauce: add water to the remaining sauce in the baking dish and let it simmer at high heat, scraping with a wooden spoon

Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a small pot

Add the flour dissolved in water and cook at high heat, stirring constantly, until thickened (approximately 2 minutes)

Transfer to a sauce boat

Cut the meat into slices and serve accompanied by the sauce
