Cheesy Bacon Chicken

Here is one of my favorite chicken recipes of ALL time :) There are a couple of different versions out there and so this is a combination of those. There are somethings that are a must and some things that are optional. This is a very loose recipe, I don't use exact measurements for everything, use what looks good and what you think you will like. ok, here goes...

The chicken:
Feta cheese
Your favorite cheese (I use jack and mozzarella)
3-4 slices of bacon (more is always better)
3-4 chicken breasts

Sauce:
8 Tbl olive oil
2 Tsp lemon juice
4 Cloves crushed garlic
1 Tbl dried oregano

1. Slice the chicken down the middle, but don't cut all the way through the other side. A butterfly cut.
2. Cook and crumble the bacon, divide amongst the chicken breasts and stuff
3. Stuff chicken with the feta cheese and the cheese of your choice. Any extra cheese can go on top of the chicken. Use a toothpick to close the open ends of the chicken. Place in a baking dish
4. Mix together the sauce ingredients and pour over the tops of the chicken. (The sauce is optional, the chicken will be very good with or without it)
5. Bake at 350F for 30 to 35 min or until chicken is all the way done
