    I used this recipe, but modified the amounts quite a bit. I took an 8 oz chicken breast, painted it with 2 Tbsp of the Jack Daniels BBQ sauce, put 3 pieces of the turkey bacon on top, and 1/4 cup Fat free cheddar. This makes 2 servings for me. It is still fantastic, without as many calories! - 6/26/10

    Wowza!! Delicious! Only change we'd do,(recommended by my 17yr old) is put bacon on chicken first, then cheese. The melted cheese would help hold the bacon onto the chicken (our came off while cutting it). We also cooked the bacon for less time, that worked well for us. My kids loved this! - 1/23/10

    This concept is so easy, but some of us have to alter it for medical purposes. Diabetes, high BP, cholesterol, asthma, would prompt me to switch the bbq sauce, reduce the cheese, but it would be worth it! This would be great over brown rice or even ON A BED OF SALAD MIXTURE!! Thank you!! - 11/8/09

    This was delicious! I modified it slightly. I grilled the chicken on a gas grill and basted with bbq sauce. When the chicken was about done I sprinkled cheese on top then took 2 slices uncooked turkey bacon and wrapped the chicken/cheese mix in the bacon and finished grilling. Any grease is gone. - 4/22/10

    I can't WAIT to try this!! It sounds mouthwatering. Too bad I already have chickens in the rotisserie or I'd make it this very night!! (Don't mind folks whose criticisms are not constructive. You've done us Sparkers a great service by sharing this recipe!) - 11/3/09
