This version of homemade boursin reminds me of the black pepper boursin you can buy mixed with the flavor of the regular, although the pepper in their boursin is even stronger. If you prefer, you can increase the black pepper from 1 tsp to 1 1/2-2 tsps. for a more bold flavor. Enjoy!

CHICKEN W/BOURSIN CHEESE IN ROASTED RED PEPPER SAU
Steps:
- Prepare the roasted red pepper sauce first by lightly coating the peppers in olive oil. Place in a 475 degree oven for 20-30 minutes. Allow to cool and remove skins. Puree in a blender until smooth (add a little olive oil for consistency). Next, butterfly the chicken breasts. In a small bowl, mix together the cheese, garlic powder, parsley, and black pepper. Spread over the entire chicken breast. Fold over and secure with string. Place in a pan and brown both sides. Once brown, take the chicken breasts out of the pan and place in a non-stick roasting pan. Cover with the roasted red pepper sauce. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly cooked. I serve this with smashed garlic mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
BOURSIN AND BACON ON CRACKED PEPPER BREAD
Steps:
- Spread each of 4 slices of bread with 3 ounces of Boursin cheese.
- Cut each bacon slice in half lengthwise. Place 2 pieces of bacon (4 halves) on top of each of the Boursin-prepared slices of bread.
- Cover each prepared half with another slice of bread.
- Evenly butter the top of each sandwich. Place each sandwich butter side down in a frying pan over medium heat. While the first side is grilling, butter the second side of bread. Cook until golden and crusty, about 1-2 minutes. Carefully turn and cook until second side is golden, about 1-2 minutes more.
Tips:
- To make the perfect Pepper Boursin, use a good quality cream cheese. Look for a brand that is smooth and spreadable.
- Be sure to use freshly cracked black pepper. This will give the boursin a more intense flavor.
- If you don't have any fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs instead. Just be sure to use half the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh herbs.
- Pepper Boursin can be used in a variety of ways. It can be spread on crackers or bread, used as a dip for vegetables or fruit, or even used as a filling for chicken or fish.
- Pepper Boursin can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Be sure to store it in an airtight container.
