Cooking Steps

Cook bacon
1
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, cut bacon crosswise into 1/4-inch strips.
  • When the pan is hot, add bacon. 
  • Cook for 5-7 min, flipping occasionally, until crispy.** (TIP: Reduce heat to medium if bacon is browning too quickly.)
  • Remove the pan from heat.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.
  • Reserve bacon fat in the pan.
Cook potatoes
2
  • Meanwhile, quarter potatoes.
  • To a large pot, add potatoes, 2 tsp salt and enough water to cover by approx. 1 inch (use same for 4 servings).
  • Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 10-12 min, uncovered, until fork-tender.
  • Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat.
  • Cover to keep warm.
Prep and stuff chicken
3
  • Meanwhile, combine cheddar, cream cheese and bacon in a medium bowl. 
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then carefully slice into the centre of each breast, parallel to the cutting board. Leave 1/2 inch intact on the other end. 
  • Cover each breast with plastic wrap. 
  • Using a rolling pin or heavy pan, pound each breast until 1/2-inch thick. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Top one side of each breast with bacon filling, then fold over like a book to enclose filling.
Cook chicken
4
  • Reheat pan with reserved bacon fat over medium-high. 
  • When hot, add chicken. Sear for 2-3 min per side, keeping each breast closed, until golden. 
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine breadcrumbs and 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil.
  • Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. 
  • Spread Dijon over chicken, then top with breadcrumb mixture, pressing down gently to adhere. 
  • Bake for 12-14 min in the middle of oven until chicken is cooked through.**
Prep and cook veggies
5
  • Meanwhile, trim broccoli ends. Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
  • Thinly slice green onions. 
  • Poke tomatoes with a fork.
  • Carefully discard any bacon fat in the pan, then wipe clean. Reheat the same pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add broccoli, tomatoes, 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook for 5-6 min, tossing often, until tomatoes soften and broccoli is tender.
  • Remove from heat. Add half the green onions. Toss to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Roughly mash sour cream, remaining green onions, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) milk and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter into potatoes until slightly mashed. (NOTE: Smashed potatoes will still have a few chunks.)
  • Divide chicken, smashed potatoes and veggies between plates.
