Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Brush BBQ sauce on both sides during the last few minutes of grilling.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Jalapenos

    While the chicken is grilling, slice the jalapenos. Remove seeds if you prefer less heat.

  4. 4

    Mix the Cream Cheese

    In a bowl, mix the cream cheese with a little bit of BBQ sauce and chopped jalapenos (to taste).

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Top each chicken breast with the cream cheese mixture, sprinkle with bacon bits, and additional jalapenos if desired.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the spicy BBQ chicken warm, with extra BBQ sauce on the side if preferred.
