Feta Cheese & Bacon Stuffed Chicken
If you love chicken as much as I do, then this recipe is for you. The recipe is low carb, is mighty tasty, and easy to prepare.
I like chicken, but the same old recipes get me down. Chicken needs to be oomphed up to tickle the taste buds. This will do it for ya.
This recipe might seem familiar - it has been around a while. My Rosie recognized it, but was very pleased by her first bite. I have made it chez a la Charlie, of course, and it suits me just fine.
Enjoy…
Feta Cheese & Bacon Stuffed Chicken
4 meaty chicken breasts. I put them in the freezer for 15 minutes so that they are easy to cut.
1/2 cup feta cheese
6 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled. (I use kitchen shears to make it uniform)
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can diced tomatoes w/ green chilies, drained
1 tsp basil
1 tsp Mexican oregano
Parmesan cheese (optional)
Fry bacon until crisp, but not burnt. Drain on paper towel. Mix with feta cheese. Slice a pocket in the chicken breast, and stuff with feta cheese/bacon mixture.
Place in crockpot. Pour tomatoes over chicken breast.
Cook on high 2 to 3 hours, monitoring in last hour for doneness. Don’t overcook and allow to dry out.
I sprinkle Parmesan cheese on this at table. It is up to you, but it goes well with the feta.
Peace,
Charlie~
