IRISH CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Slice a pocket in thick side of each chicken breast.
• Spoon about 2 tablespoons of chopped bacon into the center of a provolone slice; fold cheese around bacon and stuff into a chicken breast. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.

• Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken meat is no longer pink inside, the bacon is cooked, and the provolone cheese has melted, about 1 hour.
