Bacon Wrapped Chicken

Found this simple recipe online and decided to give it a go.

Here are the ingredients. Boneless/skinless chicken breast, 1-2 slices of bacon per breast, cream cheese.

Spread the cream cheese liberally on one side of the chicken breast.

Fold chicken breast in half. Wrap with bacon. I used 1.5 slices per breast (only because that's all I had).

Place in a shallow baking dish and cook for about 40 minutes at 400 degrees (for the last few minutes, crank on the broiler to brown the bacon).

Here's my daughter wondering why Daddy is taking pictures of food.

Impressions: Not bad. If/when I do it again, I think I'll do something to the chicken before wrapping it in bacon. Maybe some bread crumbs and some seasonings. Oh, and definitely MORE BACON!!!!

Looks great! I tried the bacon wrapped chicken a few weeks ago. Used a cajun rub mixed with a little oil, then 1 strip of bacon each, then baked. The next day I suggest to the wife to bread the whole thing and then eat it. So she takes the bacon wrapped chicken, dunks it into the eggs, then cornmeal and a little corn flakes, and frys it. Ohhh soo good.

Excellent, I'll try the cream cheese filling, maybe with chive?

I'll get back to you on that.

Your daughter is a cutie.

Not bad.

Next time try some chicken legs, wrap 'em in bacon, and smoke 'em! :delicious:
