How to Make Bacon Wrapped Goat Cheese Chicken Breasts
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup diced sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil, drained), 4 ounces (113g) crumbled goat cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
- Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a lengthwise slit into each of the 4 (6-ounce) chicken breasts to create a pocket.
- Spoon the goat cheese mixture evenly into the pockets of the chicken breasts.
- Wrap each chicken breast with 3 slices of bacon, securing with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
- Place the bacon-wrapped chicken breasts in a lightly greased shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
- Roast for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the bacon is crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve immediately with a fresh tomato salad (optional).
