INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

1 tbsp cream cheese

2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt

0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese

2 large jalapeños

1 slice turkey bacon

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.25 tsp onion powder

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp olive oil

PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a small baking dish with parchment paper.

• 2

  Finely dice the jalapeños, removing the seeds and ribs if you prefer a milder heat level.

• 3

  Cook the turkey bacon in a skillet until crisp, then finely crumble it.

• 4

  In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, shredded cheddar cheese, diced jalapeños, and crumbled turkey bacon until smooth.

• 5

  Place the chicken breast on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut a horizontal pocket into the thickest part, being careful not to cut all the way through.

• 6

  Stuff the cream cheese mixture generously into the chicken pocket and secure the opening with toothpicks if necessary.

• 7

  Rub the outside of the chicken with olive oil and season evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.

• 8

  Place the chicken in the prepared baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

• 9

  Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to ensure the filling stays intact.
