Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup (120g) sour cream
  • 1 cup (115g) shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup (50g) grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 cup (75g) cooked, crumbled bacon
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep oven & dish: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Season chicken: Arrange chicken breasts in the dish. Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Make the mixture: In a bowl, mix cream cheese, sour cream, mozzarella, and parmesan until smooth. Fold in half the bacon.
  4. Top chicken: Spread the cheese mixture evenly over each chicken breast.
  5. Bake: Bake 25–30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Broil 2 minutes for golden topping.
  6. Garnish: Add remaining bacon and green onions. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes
