Pre-heat the oven to 220 deg C (440 deg F) – spray a large enough oven dish with cooking oil
Cut a slit into each Chicken Fillet – like a pocket, not all the way through – season with Salt
Combine the Cream Cheese, Garlic, Parsley, Basil Pesto and Black Pepper in a small bowl – fill each Chicken pocket with the filling
Use 3 slices of Bacon per Chicken Fillet by wrapping each piece around the Chicken until it is completely wrapped – use toothpicks to keep the Bacon securely in place
Place the Bacon wrapped filled Chicken (slit side facing up) on the prepared baking dish – bake 20 – 22 minutes or until done
If the Bacon is not as crispy as you like, switch the oven’s top element on and grill the Chicken to your preference
