Cream Cheese and Bacon Stuffed
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
– 1 tsp garlic powder
– 1 tsp onion powder
– 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 cups crushed Doritos (nacho cheese flavor)
– 2 tbsp olive oil (for brushing)
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Carefully cut a pocket into each chicken breast, being cautious not to cut all the way through.
4. Stuff each chicken breast with the cream cheese and bacon mixture, then secure the edges with toothpicks if necessary.
5. Coat each stuffed chicken breast with crushed Doritos, pressing down lightly to adhere.
6. Place the coated chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish and brush the tops with olive oil.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is crispy.
