Season to taste with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Wrap each breast with 2 strips of bacon, and secure with toothpicks. Place into the prepared pan.
  5. 5 Bake in preheated oven until the bacon is brown and crispy, and the chicken is no longer pink, 45 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven, and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before removing toothpicks and serving.

  2. 2 Remove the chicken from the pot; set aside to cool. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, pull the meat from the bones. Put bones and skin back into the stockpot. Turn the heat up and bring the liquid back to a boil. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes.
  3. 3 Strain out the bones and vegetables, and put the liquid back into the pot and season with salt and pepper.
  4. 4 Add the beans and bean sprouts to the stock and simmer until beans are tender, about 8 minutes. Add the pulled chicken meat to the stock and mix well. Remove from heat and strain the chicken and vegetable filling until dry. Let cool completely before making the lumpia, at least 15 minutes.
  5. 5 Place 1 wrapper on the table or cutting board and put 1/4 cup of the chicken filling in the lower quarter of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper over the filling, then roll over once. Fold in the ends to seal in the filling, then continue folding over until almost to the top. Brush the edge of the wrapper with egg, fold over, and seal. Continue making the lumpia until the filling is used up.
