There’s about 136 different ways (possibly more) to prepare a stuffed boneless chicken breast, like this Stuffed Chicken Breasts With Sun-Dried Tomatoes & Goat Cheese.
This recipe stuffs chicken breasts with a savory garlic lemon cream cheese filling.
But it doesn’t end there. Wrap those delicious stuffed chicken breasts with some non-cured pork shoulder bacon for an even richer and savory dish.
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 non-cured pork shoulder 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 mix together thoroughly, cream cheese, green onions and garlic lemon seasoning. Set aside.
In a large nonstick skillet, partially cook the bacon over medium heat. Remove from heat and set aside.
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 baking pan. Place into preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes. Place under broiler for 5 minutes to crisp bacon.
