Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    4 (5 oz.) Skinless boneless chicken breasts, pounded out until flattened.
    1/4 c. BBQ sauce
    1/4 c. Hormel real bacon bits
    1 c. 2% colby/monterey jack shredded cheese ( I believe that the nutrition calculator calculated the totals using regular cheese)
    1 (14 oz.) can Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
    sliced green onions to taste
    pepper to taste

Directions

Serves 4

Preheat over to 400. Pound out the chicken breasts until flattened between two sheets of wax paper. Season with pepper.
Cook chicken in a skillet sprayed with non-stick spray over medium-low heat until no longer pink. Place each breast on a sprayed cookie sheet and top each with 1 Tbsp. BBQ sauce, cheese, rotel, 2 Tbsp. Bacon Bits and green onions to taste.

Place into the oven and bake until cheese has melted about 5 minutes.

    Incredible!
    I made this a few weeks ago, and my husband and son LOVED it. My daughter didn't like the BBQ sauce I chose that time around, so this time, I let her choose it. Of course, once again I forgot the diced tomatoes at the grocery store. *faceplam* But it was good w/out it last time. Big yum! - 11/18/12
