Best Oven Roasted Chicken Breasts Stuffed With Avocado And Bacon Recipes

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN BREAST STUFFED WITH AVOCADO AND CHEDDAR

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly chicken - cut through the center but not all the way through, opening the chicken like a book. Sprinkle inside and outside of chicken with black pepper, salt if desired (I find that the bacon adds enough saltiness).
• Open chicken up and add cheddar and avocado slices. Fold chicken over cheddar and avocado, set aside. Repeat with the other chicken breast.
• On cutting board, spread out 5 bacon slices so that they are touching. Lay chicken on top of bacon slices and wrap them around, overlapping as needed. Repeat with other chicken breast.
• Grill over medium indirect heat with the cover down for 20-30 minutes, carefully flipping at least once, or until bacon is crispy and chicken is cooked through or measures 165°F with an instant-read meat thermometer. Let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
• Cut each stuffed breast in half vertically to serve.

STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST WRAPPED IN BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Wrap 2 slices of bacon around each stuffed breast and secure in place with toothpicks. The pocket opening should be completely covered.
• Combine onion and remaining garlic in a shallow baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Place stuffed chicken breasts on top and sprinkle with rosemary.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
