Bacon Wrapped Chicken

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, sliced
4 slices bacon
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch salt


Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Pound the chicken breasts until flat. Put a slice of cream cheese and 1 teaspoon chopped chives in the middle of each breast and roll up. Wrap each rolled breast with 1 slice of bacon and secure with toothpicks. Place in a 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a medium bowl, combine condensed soup, mayonnaise, milk, lemon juice, pepper and salt. Mix until smooth, then pour over chicken.

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until no longer pink and juices run clear.

Notes: This was delicious! If you prefer your bacon on the crispier side, cook it before wrapping the chicken. I did not have chives so I used green onions. I did not have cream of chicken soup, so I used cream of mushroom. These substitutions were seemless and our dinner was very yummy.
