Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 180c.

2. Chop the bacon into small pieces and add to a frying pan over a medium heat. Fry for a couple of minutes to cook until slightly golden.

3. Transfer the bacon to a small dish to cool slightly.

4. In another small dish, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt & pepper.

5. Butterfly each chicken breast and sprinkle on the spice blend.

6. Re-heat the pan and add the olive oil. Fold the chicken breasts back over and pan fry over a gentle heat. We're not trying to cook them all the way through - this is just to give them a nice colour on the outside. After a few minutes, flip them over. Once golden on both sides, remove the chicken from the pan and transfer to an oven-proof dish.

7. Chop the jalepenos and add them to a mixing bowl along with the cooled bacon, grated cheese and cream cheese. Mix together.

8. Open up the chicken breasts and add the cream cheese filling. Fold them back over.

9. Sprinkle over any remaining spice mix on top of the chicken breasts.

10. Bake for around 25 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked. Enjoy!
