Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 8 ounces each)
3 slices bacon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 large buttermilk biscuit, crumbled (about 1 cup)
2/3 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill
1/4 cup barbecue sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium. Prepare the chicken: With your knife parallel to the cutting board, slice each chicken breast in half horizontally without cutting all the way through; open like a book. Cover with plastic wrap and pound until 1/2 inch thick.
  • Make the filling: Cook the bacon in a skillet until crisp; crumble. Mix 2 tablespoons bacon drippings with the melted butter in a bowl. Combine the buttermilk biscuit, bacon, half of the drippings mixture, the cheese, chives and parsley in a separate bowl. Stir in 2 to 3 tablespoons water; season with salt and pepper.
  • Season the pounded chicken on both sides with salt and pepper and brush with the remaining drippings mixture. Spoon the filling over the top, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges. Roll up the chicken toward the pointy end; tie with 3 pieces of kitchen twine.
  • Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil. Grill the chicken breasts, turning, until cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes, brushing with the barbecue sauce during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes, then remove the twine and slice.

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

cooking spray
8 slices bacon
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
¾ cup barbeque sauce (such as Cattlemen's® or Jack Daniel's®)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes; spread barbeque sauce over chicken breasts and bake until the juices run clear, the chicken is no longer pink inside, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a breast reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), 10 to 15 more minutes.

Tips:

  • To ensure that your chicken breasts are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that they have reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can cook the chicken breasts until they are no longer pink in the center.
  • To make the chicken breasts more flavorful, marinate them in the barbecue sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the chicken breasts, you can brush them with barbecue sauce before cooking.
  • To make the sandwiches more decadent, use a thick-cut bacon and a sharp cheddar cheese.
  • If you don't have any coleslaw, you can substitute a side salad or potato chips.

Conclusion:

This Cheddar Bacon BBQ Chicken Breast Sandwich is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or a quick weeknight dinner.
