Cooking Steps
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.**
- 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.
- 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.
