Bacon Wrapped Spinach Stuffed Chicken
A deliciously different option for boneless skinless chicken breasts, this bacon wrapped spinach stuffed chicken oozes (literally) with flavor!
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 3-4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Italian dressing (for marinading chicken)
- 1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 cups spinach leaves, washed and then chopped
- 1/2 cup Daiya dairy-free mozzerella "cheese" shreds
- 1/4 cup julienne cut sun dried tomatoes
- pinch of salt and pepper
- 6-8 pieces bacon (I used the pre-cooked, uncured bacon from Trader Joe's)
- chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Marinate chicken breasts in Italian dressing for at least 30 minutes
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
- Prep spinach and garlic
- Combine spinach, garlic, sun dried tomatoes, "cheese" shreds, salt and pepper
- Slice chicken breasts in the middle, but not all the way to the edge
- Stuff each chicken breast with the spinach mixture, then close and wrap with 2 pieces of bacon, holding the bacon in place with toothpicks
- Place in baking dish and bake for 45 minutes uncovered; when finished, baste with the juices and serve. :)
- Garnish with chopped parsley
