Cheeseburger Chicken Breast

There are never too many ways to fix a chicken breast, the most versatile of meats.

You can put this together in any number of ways, but we sure liked it this way. Perhaps you will as well.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 lg half chicken breast, filleted into two pieces.
• 1/3 c or so of ranch dressing, or Caesar, or frankly any other that you like, but it should be a creamy variety.
• 4 slices bacon
• 1/2 c or more of shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Dry the breast fillets and then salt and pepper generously. 
2. Place in a saute pan with a tbsp of EVOO and saute until browned on both sides, 
3. Fry the bacon and then break into small pieces.
4. Remove to a baking dish.
5. Paint the done fillets with the dressing.
6. Place in a 350 oven and cook for about 20-30 minutes or until done.
7. Remove and cover with cheese and bacon pieces. Shut off the oven and then place the chicken inside and leave until the cheese has melted. 
8. Serve.

SERVES: 2

NOTES: Use any cheese you wish, or any salad dressing.
