Bacon Wrapped Chicken

4 boneless chicken breasts
1 brick of cream cheese
1 brick of pepper-jack cheese (shredded)
8 slices of bacon

If frozen, thaw chicken breasts, rinse and pat dry. Place Chicken breast (one at a time) between a piece of plastic wrap and pound with meat tenderizer until 1/4" to 1/2" thickness. Set aside. In a medium bowl combine cream cheese and pepper-jack cheese until well mixed. Form cheese mixture into 4 equal balls. Place one ball of cheese in center of chicken breast and roll chicken around cheese. Wrap bacon around chicken (it should look like a gift wrapped in ribbon) and place in a shallow baking dish. Repeat for all chicken breasts. Bake on 425 for 1 hr 15 min. Broil 5 more minutes to crispin bacon. Serves well with salad or green beans.

This is very easy and fun to make! My dad loves it and makes it almost weekly!!!
