Ingredients
Scale
- 4 to 8 pieces of bacon
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons green onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup Pepperjack cheese, shredded
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese
Instructions
- Cut each chicken breast into 4 equal-sized pieces. Pound each piece to about 1/4" thickness.
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, and shredded Pepperjack cheese.
- Place 1/4 of the cheese mixture into the center of each chicken piece. Starting from the long side, roll up the chicken, ensuring the cheese mixture stays in the middle.
- Wrap 1 to 2 slices of bacon around each chicken piece. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
- Place the bacon-wrapped chicken pieces on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes.
- After baking, broil the topside of the chicken for about 5 minutes to brown and crisp the bacon. Flip each piece over and broil for an additional 3 minutes to crisp the bottom side.
