Equipment

  • baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 8 strips bacon thick cut, crisped and chopped
  • 2 lbs chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • ½ cup cheddar cheese shredded, sharp cheddar is best
  • ¼ cup green onions sliced
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C/Gas Mark 4) while you crisp your 8 strips bacon.
  • Prepare your 2 lbs chicken breasts so that they have been rinsed and pat dry using paper towels. Trim any excess fat as needed. Arrange in an even layer in the bottom of your baking dish.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened 8 oz cream cheese, ¼ cup mayonnaise, 1 cup mozzarella cheese and shredded ½ cup cheddar cheese (reserve half the cheddar for topping the dish if desired), chopped 8 strips bacon, sliced ¼ cup green onions, each, salt & pepper.
  • Spread the cheese mixture over the chicken breasts in an even layer and top with remaining ½ cup cheddar cheese if desired.
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C/Gas Mark 4) for 30-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature of your chicken breasts is at least 165°F (74°C). Check the chicken for doneness at the thickest point of one of the pieces toward the center of the dish.
  • Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Garnish with more crumbled bacon and sliced green onions when serving.
