Directions: |
Directions:Place the Boursin cheese, sour cream, jalapeño pepper, green onions, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Gently mix the ingredients until well blended.
Butterfly each chicken breast using a sharp knife. Each “wing” should be approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of the Boursin filling on each chicken, leaving about 1/4-inch border around the edges. Fold the chicken lengthwise, making sure the filling is sealed.
Completely wrap each stuffed breast with three of the bacon slices. Secure with long, wooden toothpicks in several places. Refrigerate for at least half an hour before grilling.
Spray grill with cooking spray. Place chicken over indirect heat and watch closely for any flare-ups. When chicken has almost finished cooking, move to direct heat to get the bacon nice and crispy. The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 155 F.
Remove chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes or so before serving. |
