Step 1

Before we start grilling, cut bacon in medium dice and cook it in a skillet over medium-low heat until crispy. Set aside. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and the dried spices.

Step 2

Heat grill over high heat for at least 5 minutes. Grease grates, place chicken on grill over medium heat. Let cook until almost done. When the chicken has an internal temperature of 150°F, baste with BBQ sauce on both sides and continue cooking until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. (Don't baste the chicken as soon as it hits the grill or else the sugars in the BBQ sauce will burn.)

Step 3

When chicken is cooked through, place half of the bacon on top of each piece. Mix the cheeses together and spread evenly over each piece.

Step 4

Place top of the grill down and let the cheese melt, this will only take a couple minutes. Serve.
