Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
2 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon barbecue seasoning
2 (8 ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
6 strips thinly sliced bacon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Combine cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, jalapenos, garlic powder, and barbecue seasoning in a bowl. Mix well until evenly combined.
  • Cut a deep pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Fill the pocket of each chicken breast with cream cheese mixture. Wrap each chicken breast with 3 slices of bacon.
  • Place a baking rack on top of a baking sheet and place stuffed chicken on top of the rack.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.40

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 small chicken breasts, pounded thin
salt and pepper to taste
4 jalapeños, diced
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
8 slices bacon

Steps:

  • Lay the chicken flat, season both sides with salt and pepper, place 1/4 of the mixture of the jalapeños, cream cheese, and cheddar on the chicken and roll them up. Wrap each chicken breast up to 2 slices of bacon and place them in a baking dish. Bake in a pre-heated 400°F oven until cooked, about 25 to 35 minutes.

Tips:

  • To prevent the jalapeños from becoming too spicy, remove the seeds and ribs before stuffing them.
  • If you don't have cream cheese, you can substitute it with a mixture of sour cream and mayonnaise.
  • Use a toothpick or skewer to secure the bacon around the jalapeño poppers.
  • To prevent the bacon from burning, cook the chicken at a moderate temperature.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch dressing or barbecue sauce.
