Ingredients

  • 6 bacon slices chopped
  • 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 oz cream cheese softened

  • In a small bowl, combine cream cheese and jalapenos, microwaving if needed to make smooth. Spread over chicken, and sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
  • Transfer skillet to oven, and broil 2 - 3 minutes or until cheese melts. Sprinkle each piece with bacon to serve.
