Bacon and Cheese Chicken

Bacon and Cheese Chicken

I just love when simple, weeknight recipes turn out tasting great.  Then again it is a bacon recipe so it HAS to taste good, right?  Three ingredients and an oven and you are in business with this tasty low carb meal.  You can change out whatever flavor of Laughing Cow you want, but you will probably want to add some seasoning to the chicken as most are blander than the Mozzarella, Sun-Dried Tomato & Basil flavor that I used.  Pair this with some green beans, broccoli or a simple salad and dinner is served! *INDUCTION FRIENDLY*

2 servings

2 chicken breasts
2 Laughing Cow Mozzarella, Sun-Dried Tomato & Basil flavor wedges
6 pieces of bacon


Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Pound chicken as flat as you can to have a nice surface to work with.  I use a mallet for this but whatever you have to beat up that chicken works fine.  Lay chicken breasts on a foil lined cookie sheet (make sure to fold up edges of foil to contain the bacon juices).  Spread a wedge of Laughing Cow onto each breast.  Cut each of the six slices of bacon into three pieces, giving you a total of 18 smaller pieces of bacon.  Layer 9 small pieces of bacon over the chicken and cheese.  Bake at 400 for 20 minutes.  Afterwards, carefully broil for 3-4 minutes for the bacon to crisp, watching the entire time as it can quickly go from perfect to a burnt disaster under a broiler.


This chicken recipe is fast, good, appeals to the carb-loaders in your family, easy to make, and not the same ole boring chicken.  Enjoy!
