Cheese-Stuffed Chicken Breasts Wrapped With Bacon

This recipe is super simple and quick to make. It’s perfect for a quick dinner or entertaining because the prep is simple; it’s ready for the oven in just 20 minutes!

This recipe is very flexible. You can use whatever type of cheese you prefer. But be careful not to overstuff the chicken breast; otherwise, the cheese may leak out during baking, and you’ll have a gooey mess on your hands.

Ingredients

• 4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4-6 slices of bacon
• 4-6 slices of your favorite cheese (I like cheddar)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2-3 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Place each chicken breast on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to slice a pocket into each one.
3. Stuff each pocket with a slice of cheese.
4. Wrap a slice of bacon around each breast and secure it with a toothpick.
5. Place the chicken breasts on a greased baking sheet and season them with salt and pepper.
6. Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken.
7. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked and the bacon is crispy.
8. Serve the chicken breasts with your favorite sides, and enjoy!

I remember when I first tried this recipe, I was amazed at how flavorful it was. The combination of the bacon and the ooey-gooey cheese in the center of the chicken was a match made in heaven. Give this recipe a try, and I’m sure you’ll agree.
