Yesterday I was in the mood for some chicken and some bacon. I as was looking through recipes to find the perfect combination of both I came across this wonderful recipe that I tweaked and made my own. Here it is, enjoy!!!
Ingredients:
2 Chicken Breasts
2 slices extra sharp cheddar cheese or
shredded cheese
½ bell pepper cut in small pieces
½ onion cut in small pieces
½ tomato cut in small pieces
4 pieces bacon
Salt and pepper for seasoning
Instructions
Carefully cut open chicken breasts with
a long thin knife. You'll want to butterfly them, but be careful to not cut
yourself or pull the knife up or down to get an uneven cut.
Season inside with salt and pepper.
Cut cheddar slices in half so you can
lay them inside chicken and not overhang.
Mix bell pepper, onions and tomatoes.
Lay into chicken, fold chicken back up.

| I added the cheese after I took the picture and forgot to take another one, upss!!! |
Carefully wrap chicken with bacon.
If you are having a hard time, you can
use a toothpick to keep the chicken closed and the bacon from sliding off- but
that is totally optional.
Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, check
chicken's internal temp.
When chicken is cooked thoroughly, set
to broil and crisp bacon under broiler for about 2 minutes.
Serve with veggies and a salad, rice or
other side dish and enjoy!
Note: I had two big chicken breasts and
cut in half, so I made four stuffed chicken breast instead of two. I also used shredded
cheese instead of slices (that’s what I had at home) and added a little bit of
garlic powder on top of my ready to bake chicken.
If you are looking for an easy recipe, this is it!!! It was so good and moist, my hubby loved it and took the other two pieces to work.
Have a wonderful day!!!!
