Instructions
Cut the chicken into 4 equal pieces. Pound the breast so that it is about 1/4 inch thick.
Mix softened cream cheese, chopped green onions and grated pepperjack cheese. Place 1/4 of this mixture in the center of each chicken piece.
Roll up the chicken breast starting from the long side, leaving the cheese mixture in the middle.Wrap 1 to 2 slices of bacon around the chicken breast and secure with a toothpick if necessary.
A piece of bacon wrapped around each breast is enough. But 2 pieces of bacon per breast completely coats the chicken and is outstanding.
Place on a baking tray and bake for another 30 minutes at 180°C.
