Bacon Cheeseburger Chicken

A.K.A.  A Heart-attack! :)

I mentioned this recipe a while back but never posted it. I got it from the awesome
kevinandamanda.com. I've had several people tell me that the combination of ingredients didn't look like they would mix well.....boy were they wrong. This is so delicious. I've made it several times now and will continue making it. Try it out and give your taste buds a real treat. I also recommend stopping by kevinandamanda.com to see the yummy pictures she posted and get step by step instructions.

Bacon Cheeseburger Chicken
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter
6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, split
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 lb bacon (or bacon bits) --trust me...MAKE YOUR OWN!!!

Preheat oven to 350'. If you make your own bacon bits then leave a couple of tbsps of bacon grease in your large skillet and on medium-high heat add your chicken breasts. Saute 4 to 5 minutes each side, until lightly browned. If you didn't make your own bacon bits (shame on you) then heat up the oil and butter over medium-high heat and then saute your chicken. Place browned chicken breasts in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover with teriyaki sauce and then put the ranch dressing on top of that. Sprinkle with cheese and top with bacon bits. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

I hope you think it is as fabulous as my family did. Enjoy!
