Zubereitung von Bacon Stuffed Chicken Breast With Honey And Lemon Pepper
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Butterfly your chicken breasts: Using a sharp knife, slice each chicken breast horizontally almost all the way through, creating a pocket. Don't cut all the way through; open it like a book.
- Season both sides of each chicken breast generously with lemon pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 tablespoon of minced garlic.
- Place 1-2 slices of bacon (depending on size; about 4-6 oz total) inside each chicken breast pocket.
- Drizzle half of the honey garlic mixture over the bacon in each breast.
- Fold the chicken breast closed, tucking in the bacon.
- Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a foil-lined baking dish.
- Drizzle the remaining honey garlic mixture over the tops of the chicken breasts.
- Sprinkle with extra lemon pepper.
- Cover the baking dish tightly with foil.
- Bake for 50 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and carefully pour the pan drippings into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer.
- Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce has thickened.
- Serve the chicken breasts over rice or mashed potatoes, drizzled with the thickened pan sauce.
