Ingredients
  

  • 6 thick chicken breasts
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 2 tablespoon garlic
  • 16 oz cream cheese
  • 7 oz chopped artichoke hearts
  • 2 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoon green chilies optional
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 12 strips of bacon

Instructions
 

  • Slice each chicken breast open on the straight side of the breast so create a pocket. Do not cut too close to the bottom or top or else you could cut a hole all the way through. This would lead to the filling coming out, which is the opposite of our goal of it staying in.
  • In a large skillet, put some olive oil or artichoke marinade oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach, cook until dark green. Add remaining ingredients, except chicken and bacon. Keep stirring until cream cheese is melted.
  • Begin stuffing the chicken breast with the cream cheese mixture using a spoon. I put a heaping tablespoonful in each breast because mine were really big, you can adjust your amount according to your chicken size. I used my fingers and tried to get the mixture into every area of the pocket in hopes that it would not escape while cooking.
  • Wrap the breast with 2 strips of bacon, making sure to cover the mixture opening. Secure bacon with toothpicks. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
  • Bake chicken breasts on a sprayed baking sheet for about 30 minutes at 425 degrees, flipping halfway through. Serve this Bacon Wrapped Stuffed Chicken warm.
