Butterfly each chicken breast by slicing it in half horizontally, but not all the way through, and then open it like a book.

Place a piece of plastic wrap over the chicken and pound it to an even thickness using a meat mallet.

Prepare the Filling:

In a medium bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Assemble the Rolls:

Spread a generous amount of the cheese mixture onto each butterflied chicken breast.

Place two jalapeño halves on top of the cheese mixture.

Carefully roll up the chicken breast, starting from one end and rolling tightly.

Wrap each chicken roll with two slices of bacon, securing with toothpicks if necessary.

Cook the Chicken Rolls:

Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

Sear the bacon-wrapped chicken rolls on all sides until the bacon is crispy and golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Serve:

Remove the chicken rolls from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.

Remove the toothpicks and slice the rolls into medallions.

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Tips for Perfect Chicken Rolls:

Handling Jalapeños: Wear gloves when handling jalapeños to avoid irritation from the capsaicin. Make sure to remove the seeds and membranes for a milder flavor.

Even Cooking: Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness to ensure they cook evenly.

Cheese Mixture: Adjust the amount of cheese mixture according to your preference. Add more or less depending on how cheesy you want the rolls to be.

Enjoying Your Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeño Chicken Rolls:

These bacon-wrapped jalapeño chicken rolls are best served hot, straight out of the oven. They make a great main course, paired with sides like roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
