Bacon Ranch Stuffed Chicken
Flavors Used:
This Bacon Ranch Stuffed Chicken is the best dan stuffed chicken you’ll make this fall! Packed full of flavor that’ll make your mouth water. Cheesy, creamy, balcony goodness is stuffed in each breast to give you a juicy meal that can’t be beaten. The secret is the buttermilk which gives this dish a little bit of a tang to bring out the bacon and ranch more!
Stuffin ain’t nothin to scoff at
There are a few different ways to make Bacon Ranch Stuffed Chicken. You could make a cut ¾ of the way through in the middle of the breast, pour in your stuffing, and then seal the lips with a skewer or toothpick. But you could also butterfly the chicken, put a dose of the stuffing in the middle, and wrap it back up with the potential to bread and fry to lock it in. We recommend the ¾ method because it’s easier, but you might find the butterfly technique better for you.
