A delicious and easy-to-make stuffed chicken recipe that combines the savory flavors of bacon and cheese with a hint of herbs.
Mix the crispy bacon and shredded cheddar cheese in a small bowl.
Ensure the bacon is crispy for a better texture in the stuffing.
Cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast.
Use a sharp knife to carefully create a pocket without cutting through the chicken.
Stuff each chicken breast with the bacon and cheese mixture, then secure with toothpicks.
Don't overstuff the chicken to prevent the filling from spilling out during cooking.
Place the stuffed chicken breasts in the slow cooker, top with diced tomatoes and sprinkle with dried basil.
Layer the ingredients evenly for consistent cooking.
Cover and cook on high for 2-3 hours until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
Check the chicken's internal temperature to ensure it reaches 165°F (74°C).
Serve the stuffed chicken breasts with your choice of side dishes and enjoy!
Garnish with fresh herbs for an extra touch of flavor.
