Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Mix the cheeses and mustard together. Cut a slit into the side of each chicken breast, then stuff with the mustard mixture. Wrap each stuffed chicken breast with 2 bacon rashers - not too tightly, but enough to hold the chicken together. Season, place on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 mins.
Try

Tip

If you want to use less bacon, stretch out four rashers using the back of a knife to make each one longer and thinner. Wrap just one around each chicken breast as before.

Make it veggie

Cheesy baked mushrooms: Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Mix the mozzarella and cheddar with 1 tbsp pesto, then spoon into the hollows of 4 portobello mushrooms. Place on a baking tray and roast for 15 mins or until the mushrooms are softened and the cheese is bubbling.

    I tried this recipe and at first my mother wouldn't even look at it because of the cheese. Then when she tried it she couldn't stop stuffing her mouth :)

    A good alternative is to use Boursin, or similar soft, flavoured cheese in place of the mozzarella and/or the cheddar. It's delicious

    I agree that this is great with Boursin instead of mozarella.

    Would be better with a softer cheese such as Boursin as it didn't generate any sauce. Wasn't sure what to have it with, but used Tagliatelle.

    I made this for my housemates and they loved it! I also added some halved cherry tomateoes onto the baking tray for cooking and used half fat cheddar cheese to try and make it healthier. It is also very easy and very quick to make!

    I took Amir & Helen's advice and made this with Boursin instead of mozarella and had tagliatelle with it. Absolutely delicious and very easy & quick to make. My boyfriend keeps asking me to make it again!

    This was delicious. I used Boursin with Pepper instead of mozarella and roasted some cherry tomatoes in the same dish. My husband loved it
