How to Make Bbq Bacon Chicken
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) or prepare your grill for medium heat.
- Season boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each) generously with salt and pepper.
- Cook chicken breasts in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or on the grill for 10-15 minutes, until almost cooked through (internal temperature should reach 160°F/71°C).
- Remove chicken from oven or grill and spread a generous amount of your favorite BBQ sauce over each breast.
- Top each chicken breast with 1/4 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your favorite blend).
- Add 2 slices of crispy cooked bacon per breast.
- Top with 2 tablespoons of diced tomatoes and 1 tablespoon of chopped chives.
- Place the chicken under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Let rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
