How to Make Bacon Feta Stuffed Chicken Breasts
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces of crumbled feta cheese and 4 slices of cooked and crumbled bacon. Mix gently.
- Butterfly each of the 4 chicken breasts by slicing them horizontally almost all the way through, creating a pocket.
- Divide the bacon and feta mixture evenly among the chicken breasts, filling each pocket.
- Secure each chicken breast with toothpicks.
- In an oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Brown the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side.
- Add 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes to the skillet around the chicken breasts.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of fresh basil over the chicken and tomatoes.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before removing the toothpicks and serving.
