EASY CHEESY BACON CHICKEN

This Easy Cheesy Bacon Chicken is everything you want in a comforting meal — tender, juicy chicken breasts smothered in melted cheddar cheese and crispy bacon. With just a few ingredients and minimal prep, it’s perfect for busy nights when you still want something hearty and satisfying on the table.


Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 25–30 minutes
Total Time: ~40 minutes
Servings: Serves 4 people

Ingredients:
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt & black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter (for searing)
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 6–8 slices cooked bacon, chopped
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced (optional garnish)

Instructions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Pat chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil or butter. Sear chicken breasts 2–3 minutes per side until lightly golden (they don’t need to be fully cooked through).
  4. Place the seared chicken in a lightly greased baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly over the chicken, then top with chopped cooked bacon.
  6. Bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (165°F internal temp) and the cheese is bubbly.
  7. Sprinkle with sliced green onions if desired. Serve warm!

Serving Suggestions:
  • Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed veggies.
  • Also great with a crisp green salad or roasted broccoli.
Tips:
  • Use thin-cut chicken breasts or pound them evenly for faster cooking.
  • Add a layer of ranch dressing or BBQ sauce under the cheese for extra flavor.
  • Swap cheddar for mozzarella or pepper jack for a different twist.
