(A juicy chicken breast stuffed with melty cheese and wrapped in crispy bacon, perfect for a special dinner)
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts 
100 g cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or spreadable cheese) 
8 slices bacon 
2 cloves garlic, minced 
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped 
Salt and pepper, to taste 
2 tbsp olive oil 
1 tsp sweet paprika (optional) 
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken Breasts:Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Using a knife, make an incision in the center of each chicken breast to form a pocket without cutting all the way through.
Prepare the Stuffing:Mix the cheese, minced garlic, parsley, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl.
Stuff each chicken breast with the cheese mixture, making sure to close the pocket tightly. You can use toothpicks to hold the stuffing in place.
Wrap the Chicken:Wrap each stuffed breast with 2 slices of bacon, overlapping them slightly to cover the entire surface.
Cook the Chicken:Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Sear the bacon-wrapped breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side, until the bacon begins to brown.
Sprinkle with paprika if desired, then transfer the pan to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 75°C/165°F).
Serve:Remove the toothpicks before serving. Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad. Enjoy this comforting and indulgent dish!
