Air Fried Stuffed Chicken Breast with Bacon
This will make 3 portions of a delicious stuffed chicken breast wrapped in streaky bacon. Scale it up or down to suit the numbers that you are feeding.
Ingredients
– 3 medium sized chicken breasts
– 300g of thin streaky bacon (make sure it is thin streaky bacon, NOT thick slices)
– 300g of breadcrumb stuffing
Method
- Slice the chicken breast along the side to create a pocket
- Fill that pocket with the breadcrumb stuffing
- Wrap the thin streaky bacon around each chicken breast
- Now put the chicken breasts into your air fryer for 17-18 minutes at 190 degrees.
If you’re using larger chicken breasts, increase the time for 19-20 mins and turn them halfway through to get an even cook. You may need to adjust your time slightly depending on your air fryer.
Tip: When cooking exceptionally large chicken breasts in our Ninja Air Fryer (Foodi Max Duel Zone), we increased the cooking time to 24-26 minutes. As always with chicken, it is important to check the it is cooked all the way through before serving.
If you are using an conventional oven to cook them, 35 minutes or so at 180 should be about right, but always check that you have fully cooked the chicken through.
These delicous stuffed chicken breasts wrapped in streaky bacon can be served with many combinations including the following popular suggestions:
