Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 13

¾ pound bacon, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons sour cream
⅛ tablespoon dried oregano
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
3 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup dry bread crumbs
4 potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 sweet onion (such as Vidalia®), chopped
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned but still soft. Reserve the bacon grease in the skillet, and cool the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Once cool, mix the bacon together with the feta cheese, 3 tablespoons of sour cream, oregano, and black pepper in a small bowl; set aside.
  • Lay a chicken breast flat onto your work surface. Use the tip of a sharp boning or paring knife to cut a 2-inch pocket in the chicken breast. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Spoon the bacon mixture into the pockets. Pour the flour, egg, and bread crumbs into separate, shallow dishes. Gently press the chicken breasts into the flour to coat. Dip each into the beaten egg, then press into bread crumbs.
  • Reheat the bacon grease over medium heat. Brown the chicken breasts on both sides in the hot fat, about 2 minutes per side. Reserve the bacon grease in the pan. Place the breasts on a baking dish, and bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink and the filling is hot, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • While the potatoes are boiling, cook the onion in the remaining bacon grease over medium heat until very tender and golden brown, about 10 minutes. Once the potatoes are done, mash together with the onion, butter, and remaining 3 tablespoons of sour cream. Serve the chicken breasts accompanied by the mashed potatoes.

Bacon and Feta stuffed chicken breasts image

My daughter, Janice, gave me this recipe. I love feta cheese so I knew that this recipe would be a keeper for me. (I would also add some chopped, squeezed spinach for something different)

Provided by Lucille Hoerle

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lb chicken breast flattened
salt & pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
1 Tbsp feta cheese per breast
1 tsp bacon (fried and broken into small pieces) per breast

Steps:

  • 1. On each flattened chicken breast, put on garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste. Put on the feta and then the bacon and roll up and insert a toothpick. Brown slowly in fry pan with some oil. In same pan, add 1 can of chopped tomatoes with the juice to surround the chicken. Sprinkle basil over the breasts and cover and cook for 10 mins or until done.

Tips:

  • For a crispy skin, pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels before cooking.
  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, cook the chicken until the juices run clear when pierced with a sharp knife.
  • To prevent the bacon from curling, use thin-sliced bacon and wrap it around the chicken breasts tightly.
  • For a more flavorful stuffing, use a combination of different cheeses, such as feta, cheddar, and mozzarella.
  • If you don't have any chicken broth, you can use water instead.
  • To make the sauce thicker, simmer it for a longer period of time or add a cornstarch slurry.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or vegetables.
