Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F. Line large rimmed baking pan with cooking parchment paper.
- In 10-inch skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crispy. Using slotted spoon, transfer to medium bowl. In same skillet, add onion and poblano chile; cook until softened, about 6 minutes. Transfer to bowl with bacon. Let stand 3 minutes. Add cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper; stir to combine.
- Cut pocket in each chicken breast by making a horizontal slit along thin long edge, being careful to not cut through to opposite side. Stuff each pocket with a quarter of the cream cheese filling (generous 1/4 cup). Press edges of chicken together to seal.

Dip chicken into melted butter to coat both sides, then dip into bread crumbs to coat completely. Transfer to pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center (at least 165°F).

Tips:
- Use a sharp knife to make a deep pocket in the chicken breasts for even cooking and to prevent the filling from spilling out.
- Mix the cream cheese, green chiles, and seasonings until well combined. This will ensure the filling is flavorful and evenly distributed throughout the chicken.
- Stuff the chicken breasts with the cream cheese mixture, then secure the openings with toothpicks or kitchen twine. This will help keep the filling inside the chicken breasts while cooking.
- Place the stuffed chicken breasts in your slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The cooking time will depend on the size and thickness of your chicken breasts.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before serving.

These Green Chile and Cream Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breasts are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. The chicken is tender and juicy, while the cream cheese filling is flavorful and creamy. Serve with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or salad, for a complete meal.
