Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 whole jalapenos, roasted, skinless, cut in half and deseeded
4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless (about 4 ounces each)
garlic salt
fresh cracked pepper
4 ounces monterey jack cheese or 4 ounces gouda cheese, cut into 4 pieces
4 slices bacon

Steps:

  • Flatten chicken breasts to approx 1/4" thickness. Season both sides of chicken with garlic salt and pepper.
  • Divide and place sliced smoked jalapenos on each breast with cheese. Fold over the chicken and secure with a tooth pick or two. Then wrap each chicken breast with bacon.
  • Brown rolls over medium heat until bacon just begins to crisp. Place on a baking sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
  • Grilling Method: Skip step #3. Grill on all sides until chicken and bacon are cooked through, being careful because the cheese will melt and seep out. Watch for flare ups from bacon fat.
