Cheesy Bacon Chicken

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked until nearly crisp
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozarella
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
  2. Melt butter or margarine in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken breasts and saute until just cooked; don't brown. Place chicken on a lined cookie sheet.
  3. Spread a little barbecue sauce, then a little mustard, evenly on top of each breast. Arrange a bacon slice on each breast, then cover all with cheese.
  4. Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.

This tastes like a restaurant dish. It would probably be even better with things like diced tomatoes or bell peppers on top. If you don’t have or like mozzarella, you can just use 2 cups of cheddar cheese instead.
