Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 12 slices bacon

Spice Seasoning

  • 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Spinach Artichoke Filling

  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup marinated artichokes with the brine chopped
  • ¼ cup cooked spinach
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat. Preheat your grill, smoker, or oven to 350 degrees F for indirect cooking.
  • Make the filling. In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the spinach artichoke filling. (You can also use your favorite pre-made spinach artichoke dip for this recipe if desired).
    4 ounces cream cheese, ½ cup marinated artichokes with the brine, ¼ cup cooked spinach, ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, ½ cup mozzarella cheese
  • Season the chicken. In a small bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the spice seasoning. Sprinkle liberally on all sides of the chicken breasts.
    4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Fill the chicken. On a large cutting board, slice the chicken breasts open, without slicing all the way through the breasts. Spoon a couple of tablespoons of the filling mixture into each breast and fold them closed.
  • Wrap in bacon. Wrap each chicken breast with about 3 slices of bacon. Secure the bacon ends with toothpicks, if necessary.
    12 slices bacon
  • Grill. Place the chicken breasts on the smoker or grill, close the lid and cook until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. This will take about 30-45 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken.
  • Serve. Remove the chicken breasts from the grill or oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving.
