Stuffed Butterfly Chicken

Talk about a protein kick!  This was so filling that I could only eat half!  Saved the rest for lunch today!

Stuffed Butterfly Chicken

4 pieces bacon, cooked and crumbled
2 chicken breasts, butterflied
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
1 jalapeno, diced fine
2 T basil
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees

After cooking the bacon, crumble it and place 1.5-2 pieces in the middle 
of the butterflied chicken breast.

Place tomatoes, jalapeno, basil, salt and pepper on top of the bacon.

Fold over chicken breast and use toothpicks to hold it together, ususally about 3-4.

Place stuffed chicken in baking dish with 1/4 cup water

Cook for 45-50 minutes, or until chicken temp reads 165 degrees

Serve with salad or fresh veggies!


HAPPY PALEO COOKING!!!!
