Steps:
- Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper-towel lined plate to drain, leaving bacon grease in the skillet. Chop bacon when cool enough to handle. Add shallot to bacon grease in the skillet and cook over medium-low heat until caramelized, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Coat a glass casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Place the tip of a sharp knife 1 inch from the top of a chicken breast. Cut a shallow slice lengthwise down the center, stopping 1 inch from the bottom. Cut shallow slices horizontally across the top and bottom of the slice. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.
- Combine chopped bacon, caramelized shallot, ricotta cheese, and garlic powder in a small bowl. Stuff each chicken breast with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture and place in the prepared casserole dish.
- Cook in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour and whisk to create a roux. Slowly pour in chicken broth, stirring constantly until smooth. Add in cream, lemon juice, white wine, and dill. Cook, stirring continuously, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Remove chicken from the oven. Pour sauce over chicken breasts, return to the oven, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 more minutes.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler. Broil chicken until slightly golden, about 3 minutes.

LEMON HERB STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS
The lemony flavour of this dish goes well with plain white rice or mashed potatoes. Lemon thyme is what is asked for but you can use regular thyme and it is still delicious.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400*F.
- Loosen the skin slightly from each chicken breast by sliding a finger gently beneath 1 edge, leaving the opposite edge attached, set aside.

- Take the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon zest, thyme, sage, and prosciutto with salt and pepper to taste.
- Carefully stuff 1/2 of the mixture under the skin of each chicken breast.
- Heat the remaining 2 TBs oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat.

- Turn and cook another 4 minutes, then transfer the breasts to a baking sheet and bake until the juices run clear when pierced with the tip of a knife at the thickest part, about 10 minutes.
- While the chicken is baking make the sauce by melting the butter in a small skillet over medium low heat.
- Shake the pan gently so that the butter melts evenly.
- Watch carefully as the butter begins to foam, then take the pan from the heat when the butter turns a light brown and smells slightly nutty (Don't burn).
- Stir in the parsley and lemon juice, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste, plus more lemon juice if needed.
- Put the chicken on a hot serving platter, spoon the sauce over and serve.

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts on a flat work surface. Slice each horizontally through the middle, being careful not to cut all the way through to the other side. Open the 2 sides and spread them out like an open book. Place each one between 2 sheets of heavy plastic. Firmly pound chicken with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a 1/4-inch thickness.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Season insides of chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Layer spinach, tomato, onion, and feta cheese over chicken in that order. Roll chicken over the stuffing and tie ends with butcher's twine.
- Mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper together to make the sauce.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side. Brush 1/2 of the sauce on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Pour the remaining sauce over chicken. Continue baking until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 10 to 15 minutes more.
- Remove chicken and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice into pinwheels and serve with pan juices.

STUFFED LEMON THYME CHICKEN
I was looking for a nice light summertime dish and this came to mind. I combined two of my greatest loves, artichoke hearts and roasted red bell peppers, and made them into this fantastic Mediterranean inspired dish. The chicken itself has so much flavor from the marinade and the stuffing is delicious. I kept it simple so all the flavors would shine. Try serving it over an herb cous cous or even a spicy cous cous. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut a slit in the side of each chicken breast, then use your finger to make a pocket.
