What You Need

small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (1-1/2 lb.)

orange

oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened

slices OSCAR MAYER Bacon, cooked, crumbled

1/2

cup seasoned dry bread crumbs

Tbsp. each butter and olive oil

Make It

PLACE chicken on piece of plastic wrap on cutting board; cover with second piece of plastic wrap. Pound chicken with rolling pin to 1/2-inch-thickness.

WASH orange, then grate the peel. Mix 1 tsp. of the orange peel with cream cheese and bacon until well blended. Spread 1 Tbsp. of the cream cheese mixture onto center of each chicken breast; roll up, folding in both short ends of each breast to enclose filling. Secure with toothpicks. Coat with bread crumbs; shake gently to remove excess crumbs.

MELT butter with oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 10 min. on each side or golden brown on both sides and cooked through (180°F). Place chicken on serving plate. Remove and discard toothpicks. Cut orange in half; squeeze juice over chicken. Let stand 5 min. before serving.
