Description

I love bacon, chicken, and cream cheese. When you combine all three of these, what more can you ask for. It's a recipe that I have had in restaurants and decided to tackle on my own. I was so impressed with the outcome, and I'm sure you will be too. 

[wpinsertshortcodead id="pgypi60b189d6e468e"]

Ingredients
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 115 grams herb and garlic cream cheese
  • 1 handful of baby spinach
  • 4 - 5 slices of bacon
Instructions

  1. Place the chicken on a cutting board and season it with the salt, pepper, and paprika. Using your hands, message it into the meat until it's well coated.

  2. Add the cream cheese and spinach to a mixing bowl. Gently mix them together trying not to tear the spinach too much. 

  3. Spoon the cream cheese mixture on the the bottom (large part) of each chicken breast and smooth it out. Fold the top section over the bottom covered in the cream cheese.

  4. Wrap the bacon around each breast.

  5. Place the chicken onto a baking rack or oven tray lined with parchment paper. Place it into a 375 degree F or 185 C preheated oven for about 40 minutes until the chicken is no longer pink and it's cooked through.

  6. Serve and enjoy your bacon wrapped stuffed chicken breasts.

Note

These chicken wraps are so good. There are a few things to make sure of, however. I'm always sure to use a good brand of chicken. It can make all the difference in the world. Free range or organic chicken is about the best. The texture and taste of the meat is softer and nicer. 

Also you can alter the amounts and types of ingredients to suit your palate.
