Equipment

  • sharp knife
  • metal roasting tray

Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken breasts medium
  • 6 tablespoon cream cheese with garlic and herbs
  • 1 tablespoon tarragon
  • 12 slices bacon streaky
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Chop the tarragon and mix with the cream cheese.
  • Place the chicken breast on a chopping board. Take a sharp knife and start cutting from the side. The aim is to open the breast out into a similar shaped portion without cutting all the way through.
  • Add a quarter of the Philadelphia cheese along the middle cut.
  • Lay out three pieces of streaky bacon on a chopping board then carefully wrap up the chicken with the loose ends tucked underneath.
  • Place the stuffed chicken breasts on a roasting tray and season with freshly ground black pepper.
  • Place in a preheated oven, 180C/350F/Fan160/Gas 4 and bake for 20 mins.
  • Allow the chicken to rest for 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to settle before serving.
