INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz chicken breast

2 slice center-cut bacon

1 tbsp light cream cheese

0.5 medium jalapeño

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

2 leaf butter lettuce

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

• 2

  Slice the chicken breast into two thick, slider-sized medallions and season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 3

  In a small bowl, combine the light cream cheese and finely diced jalapeño until well incorporated.

• 4

  Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the top of each chicken medallion.

• 5

  Wrap each medallion tightly with a slice of center-cut bacon, ensuring the seam is on the bottom, and secure with a toothpick if needed.

• 6

  Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and sear the sliders for 2-3 minutes per side until the bacon is golden and starting to crisp.

• 7

  Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

• 8

  Remove from the oven, let rest for 2 minutes, and serve each slider inside a fresh butter lettuce leaf.
