We can see why friends and family request this stuffed chicken ... it's delicious! The chicken stays super moist while the cheesy cream cheese stuffing is ooey gooey good. Bacon and green onions on top add an extra pop of flavor.

Ingredients

4-6 - chicken breasts

How To Make stuffed chicken breast

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix cream cheese, garlic, chili powder, and 1/2 cup shredded cheese.

Step 2

Butterfly breasts and stuff pockets. Put in a baking dish, cover, and bake for 45 minutes.
Step 3

Cook up bacon for 5 minutes before serving. Cover chicken with remaining cheese, green onions, and bacon bits before serving. *HINT* Directly out of the oven, I add the cheese, bacon, and onions (in that order) on top of the chicken, put the lid back on, and wait 5 minutes to melt the cheese before dishing and serving.
