A friend shared this Easy Cream Cheesey Chicken recipe with me years ago, but I tucked it away in my recipe box and forgot about it...until last week! My family RAVED when they tasted it and asked when I was going to make it again!!! With just 4 ingredients, easy to make AND delicious, this recipe goes straight to the top of my "Go To" recipes :). I hope you and your family enjoy it as much as we do!
3-4BreastsBoneless, Skinless ChickenTrimmed, rinsed and dried
4-6TablespoonsCream CheeseI used about 2 Tablespoons per Chicken Breast, but you may increase or decrease as desired
2-3TablespoonsGreen OnionsChopped, as many or as few as you want
3-4SlicesbaconI used Thick Sliced Bacon
Instructions
Lower oven rack to about 6"-8" from the bottom. Turn oven to Broil and let heat up while you prepare the chicken.
Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside. Gather the ingredients.
Place a chicken breast between two sheets of wax paper and pound to desired thickness (I usually pound it to about 1/4-1/2 inch at the thickest part of chicken). Repeat with the other breasts. Set aside.
Mix the cream cheese together with the chopped green onions, using a fork.
Wrap each chicken breast around 1-2 tablespoons of the cream cheese and onion mix.
Next, wrap one piece of bacon around each breast and secure with a toothpick.
Place the rolled chicken in the foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 20-25 minutes. Let rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
