Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Breasts

bacon chicken

Ohhhhhh baby! This is a really awesome dish! There are two options here: Real Bacon or Turkey Bacon. The first will give you more of that smoky flavor you’re looking for, but it is a little fattier. The second will still give you some extra flavor if you choose a smoked turkey bacon, and it’s a little healthier. HOWEVER, whatever you choose to use, these are both pretty healthy options, and they are both every so simple!

INGREDIENTS:

4 chicken breasts
4 pieces of bacon (turkey bacon or regular bacon)
1 Can Low Sodium Chicken Broth
4 Cups Uncooked Broccoli
1 Clove of Garlic, Chopped
2 T Olive Oil
1/2 Cup Mozzarella Cheese
Salt and pepper

INSTRUCTIONS:

Take your broccoli and place it on the bottom of a 13X9 pan. Cover with the can of chicken broth. Take your raw chicken breasts and wrap each in one slice of bacon. Place covered chicken breasts on top of the bed of broccoli. Drizzle olive oil evenly across all chicken breasts. Season with a small amount of salt and pepper to taste. Cover each chicken breast evenly with mozzarella cheese. Cover your 13X9 with aluminum foil, shiny side down.

Set oven to 425 degrees and cook for 20-30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees. Enjoy!
