Chicken Rolls With Smoked Fontina And Bacon
- 6 slices bacon
- 1 cup shredded smoked fontina cheese
- 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, pounded 1/4-inch thick
- toothpicks
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Cook bacon in a large oven-proof skillet until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Crumble bacon into a bowl; reserve drippings in skillet. Mix fontina cheese into bacon until combined.
- Lay chicken breasts on a flat surface; place 1/4 cup of bacon-cheese mixture on top of each. Roll up tightly and secure with toothpicks; sprinkle with black pepper. Arrange rolls in the skillet containing reserved bacon drippings.
- Brown chicken over medium heat until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Cover the skillet and transfer to the oven.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
