Pre-heat oven to 350° F (175° C). |
2. |
Flatten chicken breasts to 1/4 inch thickness. Combine pepper, garlic powder, paprika and the cayenne together in a small bowl and spread evenly on both sides of the chicken breasts. (This can be rather spicy, if in doubt, use about half of the spice mixture.) Salt to taste. |
3. |
Cut the gouda cheese into small peices and place 1 oz of cheese on each chicken breast. Press down firmly and roll the chicken from the narrow end. Wrap each roll in a slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick. |
4. |
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Brown chicken rolls evenly until the bacon starts to get crisp. |
5. |
Place the chicken rolls into a baking dish and bake at 350° F (175° C) for 20 minutes. Remove toothpicks prior to serving. |
