- Use a basil leaf to grab a chunk of the cheese mixture, and stuff inside the chicken. Repeat with another basil leaf. Stuff as much of the cheese mixture inside that will fit.
- Wrap each breast with two slices of bacon.
- Bake at 350° for approximately one hour or until chicken and stuffing mixture reach 165° and bacon is caramelized and crispy.
- Briefly place under the broiler to crisp the bacon if the chicken cooks before the bacon.
- Save extra cheese mixture for another use for 3 days.
