Indulgent blue cheese and bacon-stuffed chicken breasts with spinach. A flavorful twist on a simple meal, perfect for using up leftovers. Adjust pepper to taste. Enjoy this crowd-pleaser from my kitchen to yours!
Ingredients:
  • 8 slices bacon
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded to 1/2 inch thickness
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions:
  • Crisp up bacon on an indoor grill until cooked to your liking. Alternatively, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat or in the microwave for about 1 minute per slice. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), then combine spinach, blue cheese, and crumbled bacon in a medium bowl, mixing well.
  • Place spinach mixture evenly on the chicken breast halves. Secure filling by folding the chicken over and using toothpicks. Mix flour, salt, and pepper on a plate. Coat chicken by rolling it in the flour.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling. Brown each piece of chicken quickly on both sides. Transfer to a lightly greased baking dish and cover with a lid or aluminum foil.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes until the chicken juices run clear and the filling is hot.
