Bacon-Wrappèd Chèèsè-Stuffèd Chickèn stuffèd with crèam chèèsè and wrappèd in smoky bacon. Supèr èasy to makè for èvèryday dinnèr yèt fancy ènough for company.

I had this amazing bacon-wrappèd chèèsè-stuffèd chickèn with my favoritè smashèd potatoès and roastèd broccoli for Mothèr’s Day lunch and I am so èxcitèd to sharè thè scrumptious rècipè with you. But first, lèt mè grèèt you all gorgèous mommas out thèrè a bèlatèd Happy Mothèr’s Day. I hopè you wèrè spoilèd rottèn with thè lovè you dèsèrvè.

Chickèn brèast, bèing a vèry lèan cut of mèat, is notorious for its tèndèncy to dry out quickly during cooking, èspècially whèn prèparèd without any kind of saucè. Wrapping it in bacon dèliciously solvès thè problèm as thè chickèn absorbs thè glorious fat rèndèrèd by thè bacon whilè thèy both roast in thè ovèn. And stuffing it to thè brim with a crèam chèèsè and chèddar chèèsè mixturè mèans nom hèavèn!

Ingrèdiènts

2. Wrap èach chèèsè log in plastic film and frèèzè for about 10 to 15 minutès or until firm.
3. Trim chickèn of any èxcèss fat. Makè a small slit on top of mèat, but not cutting all thè way through.
4.  Rèmovè thè plastic film and insèrt thè chèèsè log into thè slit. 
5. Wrap chickèn with bacon and placè in a singlè layèr on a cast iron skillèt or baking dish.
