INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 slices Bacon
1 Jalapeño
1.5 tsp Olive Oil
0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a slit into the thickest part of the chicken breast to create a pocket.
Remove seeds from the jalapeño (if desired for a milder spice) and finely chop or slice.
Stuff the jalapeño into the pocket of the chicken breast.
Season the chicken inside and out with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Wrap the seasoned chicken breast with two slices of bacon, securing them if necessary with toothpicks.
Place the bacon-wrapped chicken on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Drizzle 1.5 teaspoons of olive oil over the chicken to help crisp the bacon.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the bacon is crisp.
Allow the chicken to rest a few minutes before serving to lock in juices.
