Ingredients
Serves 4- 4 tablespoons chive and onion cream cheese (or more, as desired)
- Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley or chives
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each), pounded to ½-inch thickness
- 8 slices bacon (not thick-cut)
- Kosher salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter, chilled and diced into very small pieces
Open in Supper to scale servings and turn this into a grocery list.
Steps
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 400° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil; set a metal cooling rack on top.
- Step 2
Season chicken with salt and pepper. Spread about 1-2 tablespoons of cream cheese on a chicken breast and dot with about ¼ of the butter. Roll up and wrap with 2 slices of bacon; secure with toothpicks if necessary. Place seam-side down on the rack on top of the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining chicken.
- Step 3
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
- Step 4
Adjust the oven to BROIL on high. Place the chicken about 6 inches from the heat and broil until the bacon is crisp, about 3 more minutes. Keep a close eye on the chicken, since the bacon can burn quickly.
- Step 5
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives, if desired.
