Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Coarsely chop the spinach and place it in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Stir until wilted. Add cream cheese and stir until melted and creamy. Cool completely.
  3. With a sharp knife, butterfly chicken breast horizontally (so you can open it like a book) and pound to ½" thickness. Season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.
  4. Divide the spinach mixture over each breast and top with one slice of Swiss cheese. Close chicken around the spinach and cheese.
  5. Wrap each breast with 2 slices of bacon and secure with toothpicks. Season with cajun or chicken seasoning if desired.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until internal temperature reads 165°F. Remove and discard toothpicks.
