Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. Spread one Tbsp. cream cheese over each chicken breast; top with one Tbsp. butter and 1/4 tsp. tarragon. Roll up and wrap with one slice bacon; secure with a toothpick.
Place chicken seam-side down on an ungreased baking sheet; bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a fork. Increase temperature to broil; broil 8 to 10 minutes or until bacon is crisp.
Easy sauce to top this chicken: Melt one Tbsp. of butter and stir in 3 Tbsp. Dijon or honey mustard.
