Wende's Note:

A wonderful and quick main course just add a veggie and side dish and you have a nice healthy dinner Just added 8-28-04: You can also add chopped tomatoes on top with the green onions and if your in a hurry use the precooked bacon, you can cook the chicken on a grill it tastes wonderful as well!

Recipe is a good idea.I used homemade tomato mushroom sauce instead of BBQ sauce also used half cheddar and half mozzarella cheese.You can also sub cooked sausage rounds for the bacon.

I have had this two ways, the way as stated and grilled. I prefer the grilled way. It is so much better. You grill the chicken with the bbq sauce and then add extra when you put in the oven to melt the cheese. We cooked the bacon in the skillet to get it nice a crunchy and didn't top it until the chicken came out of the oven. Super YUMMY!

Here's how I made it. Baked frozen breasts for 50 minutes at 375 (topped with a little sauce). Then added more sauce, bacon bits and put it back in the oven until the cheese melted. Topped with the onion. Served it with homemade mashed red skinned potato salad and my kids and husband loved it!
