Bacon Wrapped/Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast #2
Excellent
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Make a small incision in thick part of the top of the breast. Just small enough to be able to squeeze a finger inside of the breast and make a pocket as far down as possible without tearing the breast open.
- 2
A tear is only a minor problem. You can still stuff the breast, but the stuffing will bubble out.
- 3
In a mixing bowl combine cheese, roasted peppers, spinach, and the juice and zest of the lemon. Add a pinch of salt.
- 4
Drizzle enough oil to cover the chicken. Season with dried spices, thyme, salt, and pepper.
- 5
Use a basil leaf to grab a chunk of the cheese mixture, and stuff inside the chicken. Repeat with another basil leaf. Stuff as much of the cheese mixture inside that will fit.
- 6
Wrap each breast with two slices of bacon.
- 7
Bake at 350° for approximately one hour or until chicken and stuffing mixture reach 165° and bacon is caramelized and crispy.
- 8
Briefly place under the broiler to crisp the bacon if the chicken cooks before the bacon.
- 9
Save extra cheese mixture for another use for 3 days.
