Ingredients

  • 2 chicken breasts boneless and skinless
  • salt and pepper to season the chicken
  • 4 to 6 ounces brie (110 - 170g)
  • 4 tablespoons cranberry sauce
  • 6 slices bacon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400F/200C.
  • Cut the chicken breasts partially in half lengthways and lay flat on a chopping board.
  • Season all over the breasts with salt and pepper.
  • Divide the brie and cranberry sauce between the two breasts. Lay in the middle where you have cut.
  • Close the breasts and wrap tightly with the bacon. Secure the bacon with tooth picks if needed.
  • Place on a lined baking sheet and cook in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes til the bacon is crispy and the chicken is cooked through.

Notes

  • Don't cut the chicken all the way through when you cut in in half so that it's easier to fold together.
  • Don't go overboard on the fillings or they will ooze out when they are cooked.
  • Wrap the bacon tightly around the breasts. You can secure the bacon ends with toothpicks if it's not holding together, just be sure to remove them before serving!
  • Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts and place on a chopping board loosely covered with foil. Let them rest for 5 minutes for an extra juicy bite.
