BACON-WRAPPED CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN BREAST
This is not at all difficult to make --- although you can use uncooked bacon strips I prefer to semi-cook the bacon in the oven first just to release some fat but do not cook until crisp or wrapping it around the chicken will be impossible --- the chicken may be prepared up to one day in advance, which makes this great dinner party food, just cover refrigerate and mix up the sauce when ready to bake :)

BAKED CHICKEN BREAST WRAPPED IN BACON WITH CHIPOTLE SAUCE
I love this recipe because it's very simple to prepare and cook and is a hit at the dinner table. From my experience the best kind of bacon is to use the "center cut" type, it's more meat than fat and very tasty.

Steps:
- Cut chicken into 4 equal size pieces. Pound breast so it is about 1/4" thick. Mix together softened cream cheese, chopped green onions and shredded pepperjack cheese. Put 1/4 of this mixture into the middle of each piece of chicken. Starting at the long side, roll chicken breast up, keeping the cheese mixture to the middle. Wrap 1 to 2 slices of bacon around the chicken breast, secure with toothpick, if needed. One piece of bacon wrapped around each breast is enough. But 2 pieces of bacon for each breast fully wraps the chicken and is outstanding. Place on baking sheet and back for 30 minutes at 375 degrees F. Broil topside for about 5 minutes to fully brown and crisp bacon. Turn each breast over and broil for another 3 minutes or so to crisp up the bottom side.
Tips:
- To ensure the chicken is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
- If you don't have toothpicks, you can secure the bacon with kitchen twine.
- For a crispier bacon, cook the chicken for a few minutes longer.
- If you want to add more flavor, you can season the chicken with your favorite spices before wrapping it with bacon.
- To make the chicken more moist, you can brush it with olive oil or melted butter before cooking.
