INGREDIENTS:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (pounded to ½ inch thickness)
- 1½ teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 slices bacon, slightly undercooked (you don't want them too crispy)
- 4 slices swiss cheese
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat oven to 375 and line a baking dish with lightly greased foil.
- Season chicken breasts with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Place in prepared baking dish. Top with two slices of bacon for each chicken breast, then top each with one slice of swiss cheese.
- Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked through. Serve immediately and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Notes:
If you are a sauce/ranch dressing lover, you can serve these melty swiss and bacon chicken with a side of cool and creamy ranch dressing.
