Egg And Bacon Stuffed Bread Recipes

BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE-STUFFED LOAF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Make a V-shaped cut in the baguette, leaving ends intact. Lift out V-shaped wedge. Hollow out baguette gently to make a long, skinny bread bowl, being careful not to cut through the bottom or sides. Place baguette on the prepared baking sheet.
• Whisk eggs in a bowl. Add milk; whisk until well blended. Stir in fontina cheese, spinach, bacon, sun-dried tomatoes, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Pour mixture slowly into the prepared baguette, spreading evenly with a spoon.
• Bake in the preheated oven until egg mixture is completely set and cheese is lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes; cut into 1 1/2-inch slices.

BACON STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Break dry bread inot bite-size pieces and place in a large bowl.
• Fry bacon on medium-high heat until crisp; add onion, celery, and butter. Sauté for 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Add egg, herbs, chicken stock and slightly cooled bacon/vegetable mixture to the bread. Mix well.
• Spoon stuffing into a lightly greased 9x5 loaf pan and bake at 400F for 45 minutes.
• Remove pan from the oven, invert onto a serving plate, slice and serve.

CHEESY BACON-STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish with olive oil, then sprinkle 3 pinches bread crumbs across the bottom.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crispy, 10 to 11 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• Filet chicken breasts 90% of the way through and open like a hot dog bun. Spread 2 tablespoons chopped Parmesan cheese on one side of each breast. Top each with a bacon slice and 1 1/2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan.
• Close the breasts. Dip in beaten egg, then in bread crumbs. Place in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining shredded Cheddar over top.
• Cook in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
