Whole stuffed Jalapeno, Stuffed Chicken, Wrapped in Bacon!! Texas Weekday, WOW factor!

      OK, I was feeling like it's a weekend, even though it's only Thursday~  Wanted to make a special meal..... JUST because!  Mission accomplished!  Yes, it includes BACON!


  Whole Stuffed Jalapeno, STUFFED Bacon Wrapped Chicken!  (now, does that sound Texan, or WHAT??!!)    A RedheadWhite&Food original recipe!



Flatten chicken breasts, salt and pepper~
                              
Put shredded parmesan down, stuff the seeded jalapeno with chive and onion  cream cheese and place in center of chicken breast~

Wrap up best you can...it seems messy and like it will not close because the chicken is not big enough, which is  right, it's NOT big enough,  however, the bacon will come to the rescue and hold it together!  It actually looks great that some bits are sticking out!

Now, take your sauce you made up and carefully pick up each piece to coat the bottoms, then the tops~
All coated, and I will put cracked pepper over all, then bake!  375 for 35 minutes!

ALL BAKED UP!  Even threw in some extra sliced, stuffed jalapenos half way through cooking, because I COULD!  :)  (I'm all powerful like that!) 
LOOKS GOOD, DOESN'T IT?!!!
Recipe~

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts~ flattened a bit
6 whole, fresh Jalapenos~ tops cut off, sliced in half and seeded
1/2 cup parmesan cheese~ shredded
12 pieces of bacon
8 ounce tub of onion and chive cream cheese~ use as much as you need to stuff jalapenos


Sauce~
1/2 cup maple syrup
3 Tablespoons dijon mustard
1 Tablespoon brown sugar

Combine all for sauce and coat over prepared chicken before you bake!  Follow directions from above! :)

  2. So welcome, Taylor! A big Texas HI to ya!! My boys love these! If you want the Jalapeno inside to be more soft, you can microwave it up a bit before you stuff it, and put into chicken, otherwise it's more crisp, but we like it that way~ :) Blessings~
