Dump And Bake Cheddar Bacon Chive Chicken Breast Recipes

DUMP-AND-BAKE CHEDDAR BACON & CHIVE CHICKEN BREAST RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F (200C).
• In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt and pepper.
• Place chicken in a large baking dish (about 9-inch by 13-inch) that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Sprinkle chicken with a little bit of salt and pepper, to taste.
• Pour honey mustard sauce over chicken and toss to make sure that each piece of chicken is well coated. Top with chives, half of the bacon, and cheddar cheese (in that order).
• Bake, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes, or until meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F and chicken is cooked through. The total cooking time will depend on the thickness of your chicken breasts. During the final 5 minutes, add remaining bacon to the top of the chicken. It will get nice and crispy as the chicken finishes cooking
• Garnish with additional fresh chives just before serving, if desired.

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN WITH CREAM CHEESE AND CHIVES

Steps:

• Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Between 2 sheets of wax paper with a mallet flatten chicken breasts to ½" thickness.
• Step 2: Spread 3 tablespoons of cream cheese over each chicken breast. Then Dot with butter and season with salt. Wrap with bacon and stick a toothpick through the rolled chicken breast to hold it together. Roll up and stick a toothpick through to hold it together.
• Step 3: Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes (or until juices run clear).
• Step 4: Turn on the broiler and broil six inches from the heat for 5 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.

CHEDDAR CHEESE BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN BREAST AT ITS BEST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Add water to a baking dish (I just use a cookie sheet).
• Place onions in water.
• Wrap each chicken breast with a slice of bacon. Make sure ends of bacon are faced downwards when placed on cookie sheet.
• Once all chicken breasts are wrapped with bacon and placed on cookie sheet on top of onion slices, sprinkle the top of chicken with an even amount of each dry ingredient. Starting with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder then paprika. Bake for 20 minutes.
• By this time, if the water is evaporated add a little more. Flip over and sprinke the tops of chicken breasts with all dry ingredients again. Cook for an additional 20 minutes. By this time, again, water should be gone. Add cheese to the top of each piece of chicken and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until cheese has melted. Enjoy!
