Bacon-wrapped Chicken Breasts

This is one of the simplest recipes I've made, and it is really good. How can it not be when there's lots of cream cheese involved?

We had these with fried corn and roasted asparagus. Really yummy!

2. Flatten chicken to about 1/2" thickness.

3. Spread 3 T of cream cheese over each chicken breast.

4. Put a little butter on top of the cheese and sprinkle with a little salt. Roll up the chicken and wrap with a strip (or two!) of bacon.

6. Place chicken under broiler for about 5 minutes to brown and crisp the bacon.
