Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    While the chicken is grilling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    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 fried green tomatoes, a generous sprinkle of Monterey Jack cheese, and crumbled bacon.

  5. 5

    Melt the Cheese

    If desired, return the topped chicken to the grill for a couple of minutes to melt the cheese.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot with your choice of sides.
