I'm trying to cook more, and eat out less. So, I've been trying to find new recipes. Sometimes, I find one that I think my preschooler and my husband will eat and I try to make it a little bit healthier. That's what I did today! Everyone actually liked this one, I have to admit it was pretty yummy! We will for sure be making it again!
Bacon Cheddar Chicken
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup Light BBQ sauce
4 strips of turkey bacon (cooked)
1/2 cup of reduced fat cheddar cheese- I don't buy pre-shredded cheese, because I don't like the anticaking stuff they use and I think it tastes so much better to shred your own!
Here's what I did- I cut the chicken breasts in half. You don't have to do this, but I like to make them thinner so that they cook fast and because I don't need to eat an entire chicken breast. Brush half of the bbq sauce on the chicken and bake at 350 until chicken is done. (20-30 mins) In the meantime, cook the turkey bacon. I just put it in a skillet and pan fried it. Shred the cheese while you wait. Once the chicken is done, pour the rest of the sauce on, put a slice of bacon on each breast and then top with a sprinkle of the cheese. Stick it back in the oven until the cheese melts. The enjoy! It's really yummy!
