Chicken Breast Stuffed With Hot Bacon is a delectable recipe that mixes the flavors of delicate chicken breast and crispy bacon. Here’s a recipe to help you make it:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 slices bacon – 1 teaspoon garlic powder – 1 teaspoon paprika – 1/2 teaspoon salt – 1/4 teaspoon black pepper – 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Place the chicken breasts flat on a clean surface. Make a horizontal cut along the side of each chicken breast with a sharp knife to create a pocket for the stuffing. Take care not to cut all the way through.
- Roll two slices of bacon tightly together. Stuff the rolled bacon into the pocket of one chicken breast. Rep with the remaining chicken breasts.
- Melt the butter in a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts in the pan for about 2 minutes on each side, or until the bacon begins to crisp up.
- Place the skillet in a preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the chicken breasts from the oven and set aside for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the Chicken Breast Stuffed With Hot Bacon as a main course with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
