Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Recipe Source Unknown

These can be a little messy if you don't get the chicken secure enough so I suggest you put down foil in your pan.  It's not my favorite thing trying to pry off baked on cheesy stuff.

Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Skinless, boneless chicken breasts are pounded and stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese, dried chives and minced dried onion. They're rolled up and wrapped with bacon, then baked.
Ingredients:

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup softened cream cheese (about 8 oz.)
• 1/2 TBSP dried chives
• 1/2 TBSP instant minced onion
• 4 tsp butter or margarine
• 4 slices bacon

Instructions:

Place chicken breasts between two slices of waxed paper and pound to about 1/4-inch thickness. Salt and pepper the breasts and set aside. In small bowl, blend thoroughly the cream cheese, chives and onion. Dollop each of the breasts with one-fourth of the cream cheese mixture. Then dot each with 1 tsp butter or margarine. Fold the sides in to hold the cheese stuffing; roll each breast up and wrap with a slice of bacon. Place seam side down in baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees about 50-60 minutes until done, then place breasts under the broiler for about 5 minutes until the bacon is browned.
