Ingredients Notes

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
8 rashers of streaky bacon
150 ml barbecue sauce shop-bought is completely fine – more on making your own below
150 g cheddar cheese grated
Salt and black pepper
Optional: a drizzle of olive oil

Notes

For the best results, use good-quality BBQ sauce and cheddar cheese. Make sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before serving. Let it rest for a few minutes after baking so the juices stay inside.
