Wrap 2 slices of bacon around each stuffed breast and secure in place with toothpicks. The pocket opening should be completely covered.
• Combine onion and remaining garlic in a shallow baking dish and drizzle with olive oil. Place stuffed chicken breasts on top and sprinkle with rosemary.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Add as much as you want of each seasoning per your taste, I used a couple of shakes for each ingredient and a little extra of the cheeses.
• Mix all stuffing ingredients together in a bowl.
• Lay one chicken breast in the shallow seasoning dish to coat the outside, and then in the center of the chicken breast add a line of the stuffing mixture.
• Roll and seal by sticking a toothpick on the top of each end to close.
