Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.

- Wrap each stuffed chicken breast with 2 bacon rashers - not too tightly, but enough to hold the chicken together. Season, place on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes.
- Tip:If you want to use less bacon, stretch out four rashers using the back of a knife to make each one longer and thinner. Wrap just one around each chicken breast as before.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to cut the chicken breasts and make the pocket for the stuffing.
- Don't overstuff the chicken breasts: The stuffing should be packed tightly, but not so tightly that it bursts out of the chicken when it cooks.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Mustard-stuffed chicken is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a little bit of planning and preparation, you can create a delicious and memorable meal that your family and friends will love.
