Step 1

Preheat oven to 375F/190C.

Step 2

Take cream cheese out of the fridge and cut into pieces so it will soften on the counter.

Step 3

Slice the bacon into thin strips and start cooking it in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. (Choose a pan that's large enough to hold all the chicken breasts.

Step 4

While bacon cooks combine Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, Dill Weed, Beau Monde Seasoning, and black pepper to make the seasoning mix

Step 5

Trim any fat and undesirable parts from chicken breasts and rub the chicken on both sides with the seasoning mix, using about half of the seasoning mix

Step 6

When bacon is crisp and well-browned, remove it to a paper towel. Reserve 2 tablespoons bacon grease from the pan and discard the rest. (I would wipe out the pan if there are a lot of bacon crumbles.

Step 7

Heat the bacon grease in the frying pan over medium-high heat, add chicken breasts, and cook until both sides are browned but the chicken isn't cooked through. (That should only take 2-3 minutes per side.)

Step 8

When chicken is browned, move it to a cutting board. Cut each piece or chicken into 4 or 5 lengthwise strips, depending on how large the piece is

Step 9

Spray a 9" x 13" casserole dish with non-stick spray and arrange the chicken strips in the dish. (I stagger them so most of the surface of the baking dish is covered.

Step 10

Put the softened cream cheese in a bowl and microwave 20 seconds, or until it's quite soft

Step 11

Chop up half of the cooked bacon so it's finely crumbled

Step 12

Mix together the softened cream cheese, crumbled bacon, sour cream, mayo, sharp cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup of the Monterey Jack cheese, and the other half of the seasoning mix

Step 13

Then spread that mixture over the chicken in the baking dish

Step 14

Sprinkle over the other 1/2 cup of Monterey Jack cheese

Step 15

Bake chicken 20-25 minutes, or until it's bubbling hot and starting to slightly brown on top

Step 16

While chicken cooks, thinly slice the green onions

Step 17

When chicken is done, sprinkle with the sliced green onions and the other half of the cooked bacon

Step 18

Serve hot

Step 19

This will stay good in the fridge for quite a few days and reheats well. I haven't frozen any yet, but I am confident it will freeze well, although I can't imagine most people will have any leftovers to freeze!
