Serving Size: 4

Cooking Time: 55 minutes

Ingredients

• 8 Slices bacon
• 6 Ounces (oz) cream cheese
• 4 Green onions, minced
• 0.25 Cups red bell pepper, minced
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) garlic powder
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) salt
• 0.5 Teaspoon (tsp) pepper
• 4 Skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a small baking dish to prevent sticking.
2. In a large, deep skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes, until the grease has mostly rendered but the bacon remains soft. Remove the bacon and pat it dry with paper towels. Set aside.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, minced green onions, minced red bell pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
4. Lay each chicken breast flat and evenly divide the cream cheese mixture onto each one. Fold the chicken breasts in half to enclose the filling.
5. Wrap each stuffed chicken breast with 2 slices of the pre-cooked bacon, securing them with toothpicks as needed to hold everything in place.
6. Place the wrapped chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the thickest part. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
8. Carefully remove the toothpicks before serving. Enjoy your savory bacon-wrapped cream cheese stuffed chicken breasts with your favorite side dish!
