Bacon Wrapped Garlic Lemon Stuffed Chicken Breast

The website Yummy, features about 136 different ways to prepare a Boneless Chicken Breast Wrap. Our featured recipe consists cutting the chicken breasts horizontally and rolling them up with a garlic lemon cream cheese filling and wrapped with a non-cured pork shoulder bacon for a rich and savory dish.

The garlic lemon is a seasoning we purchased at the Whole Foods Market, and it was a worth while purchase as it added splendid flavor to the dish.

To move things along in the preparation of the ingredients, such as the green onions, we used kitchen shears.

The photo at the start of the post looks to mouth watering, lip smacking good to write more about stuffing a chicken breast, so let’s get to cooking.

Here is what you will need for our Bacon Wrapped Garlic Lemon Stuffed Chicken Breast

2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, cut horizontally

1 pound cream cheese, room temperature

3 green onions, chopped

1 tablespoon garlic lemon seasoning

12 pieces bacon, partially cooked

Several tooth picks

Heat oven to 375 degrees

Prepare chicken breast by cutting each breast horizontally into two pieces, and set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl cream the cheese and add the chopped green onions and garlic lemon seasoning. Set aside.

In a large ceramic coated frying pan partially cook the bacon over medium heat. Set aside in a separate plate.

Spread a layer of cream cheese mixture over one side of each breast section, but not to thick. Roll chicken breast up to conceal cream cheese, and secure with toothpicks.

Rap two pieces of bacon diagonally and keep in place with toothpicks. Rap one piece of bacon long ways or horizontally and keep in place with toothpicks.

Place all four bacon wrapped chicken breasts into a medium sized glass baking pan. Place pan into heated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Place under broiler for 5 minutes to crisp bacon.

Plate and serve.
