Dinner 55 Mins.

Ingredients

2

2 servings

  • cooking spray
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 0.25 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons minced shallot
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 4 thick slices of applewood smoked bacon
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut a slit into the thick side of each chicken breast, about 2 inches long and 1 1/2 inches deep.
  • Mash together Gorgonzola cheese, parsley, shallot, and garlic in a small bowl; season with salt and black pepper. Fill each chicken breast pocket with Gorgonzola mixture. Wrap 2 slices bacon around each breast; secure with wooden toothpicks. Place chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bacon is browned and chicken is no longer pink inside, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a breast should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C).
