Creamy Bacon Hasselback Chicken Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Slice into the chicken several times, about ½ cm (¼ inch) apart, but only cut about 85% of the way through, leaving the bottom intact.
• Cook the bacon over a medium heat until it starts to get crispy.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Stir in the spring onions and cook for another minute or so.
• Add the cream cheese and cook until melted.
• Allow filling to cool to the touch, and then fill each segment of the chicken breast with about 1 teaspoon of the mixture.
• Bake in the centre of the oven for 18-22 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cook the spinach on a medium heat in a splash of oil for 3-5 minutes until it is slightly wilted.
• Stir in the ricotta and cook for a further 30-60 seconds. Allow to cool.
• Cut slits into the chicken breasts about 1cm (½ inch) apart but don't cut all the way through - about 75% of the way down is what you should aim for.
• Stuff all of the spinach and ricotta mixture into the slits.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
• Grate the cheddar and sprinkle it generously on top.
• Shake the ground paprika over the chicken to add some colour and flavour.
• Bake in the centre of a pre-heated oven for 20-25 minutes 400°F (200°C) until the cheese has melted and the juices are clear.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• At a slight angle, cut 6 slits into each of the chicken breasts, making sure not to cut all the way through. You should leave roughly 1/4 inch unsliced. Brush the top of each chicken breast with 1 tablespoon of the mustard.
• Mix together the breadcrumbs, butter, salt and pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the chicken, using your hands to press the mixture into the mustard. Place a quarter piece of cheese and a half-moon piece of Canadian bacon into each of the slits in each chicken breast. Transfer the stuffed chicken breasts to a baking sheet.
• Bake until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden, 20 to 22 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite sides.
• Freezing instructions: Once the uncooked chicken breasts are assembled, place 4 onto a wax paper-lined baking sheet; repeat with the remaining chicken breasts on a separate lined baking sheet. Transfer the baking sheets to the freezer until the chicken breasts are frozen through, at least 3 hours. Transfer the chicken breasts to 2 wax paper-lined foil pans. Label, date and freeze until ready to eat.
• When ready to eat, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Bake the chicken breasts from frozen until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden, about 40 minutes. Serve as directed above.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, nonstick skillet.
• Toss in the mushrooms and season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Sauté until the mushrooms have started to darken in color.
• Place the spinach on top of the mushrooms and toss until the greens have wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Set the spinach mixture aside.
• Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Using a sharp knife, make vertical cuts, about half an inch apart, making sure not to cut all the way through the chicken.
• Transfer the chicken to a greased roasting pan.
• Stuff the spinach mixture into the cuts of the chicken breasts. Season with paprika and top with a sprinkle of grated cheddar cheese.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes at 400°F (200°C), until the cheese has melted and the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (72°C).
• Let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• Using a sharp knife, make crosswise cuts in each potato, about ⅛ inch (3 mm) apart, stopping about ¼ inch (6 mm) from the bottom.
• Microwave your potatoes for 5 minutes per potato.
• Mix together melted butter, minced garlic, and minced parsley.
• Brush on the potato. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Insert 6-8 slices of bacon into the middle section of slots in the sliced potato.
• Transfer the potatoes to the oven and bake until the outsides are browned and crisp, about 30 minutes, basting with more butter if needed.
• In a sauce pan, combine the milk, cream cheese, salt, and pepper. Heat and stir until well-combined and smooth.
• Add in the chopped chives to the cream cheese sauce.
• Stir and pour over the crispy potatoes. Add extra chives for garnish.
• Enjoy!
