I tried this and it was great! The bacon gives off a nice ammount of drippings, which is perfect to pour over the chicken. I thought the cream cheese would simply melt away- but it puffed up nicely inside the chicken.

Try adding diced green peppers and fresh pressed garlic to the cream cheese mixture, roll the chicken breast and wrap with bacon. We love it!

I can only give this a 4 because I'm a vegetarian, and I didn't actually try this. However, my boyfriend and my friend absolutely loved this! As long as they weren't lying to appease me, this was a hit!

I made this last night. I added jalapeno, and garlic to the cream cheese and chives for added flavor and spice. It smelled so good I could hardly wait to eat. It was delicious! The jalapeno added a lot of heat so if you don't like too much green chilies would be better, but we both loved it. I will definitely make it again!

This recipe is good but i tweaked it to perfection. Get the chicken breast which is butterflied open and add roasted red peppers, prociutto, chorizo, basil and a piece of swiss cheese. Roll it up and then wrap it in the bacon. It is to die for. I usually season it with garlic, onion powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and paprika and a tad bit of olive oil and your good to go. You can bake it or grill it.

This was a fantastic recipe. I added "no-salt" spices to the cream cheese along with a little Cayenne pepper. I also seasoned my chicken very well. It was finger lickin good. I added a little Red Pepper/Parmesan Italian salad dressing to my pan & some of the cream cheese melted into the dressing which made a yummy sauce.

Substituted chopped red and green peppers for the chives, added some garlic powder and chili powder, turned out incredible. A very nice touch for a simple chicken dish. Served over rice.

Thanks heaps. This is quick and easy and tasty! I added a little salt and pepper before I folded the chicken and even got my very fussy 3yr old to eat it! Cheers ;-)

I rolled my chicken breasts with cream cheese and spinach then wrapped bacon around and served them with cheese Tortellini and topped with broccoli Alfredo sauce.

Had this tonight - hubby loved it - me too! I added onion powder, garlic powder, Montreal chicken spice, paprika and black pepper to the cream cheese and then after I added quartered sliced onion just before rolling- I did as someone suggested - after it had reached almost the finished cooked stage I rolled them over and put the broiler on to finish off the bacon on the underside..Definitely a keeper recipe :)
