- Preheat the oven to 400F. Take a 13 x 9-inch baking dish and grease it and put aside.
- Until ¼ in. in thickness, pound the four chicken breasts. With pepper, garlic powder, and salt, sprinkle.
- To the non-stick pan, add olive oil and place over medium heat. Put diced bacon and heat until it turns crispy. Take the bacon out and keep the bacon grease in the pan. Put butter and when hot, add the chicken breasts and heat 2-3 mins per side, until it turns golden.
- Into the baking dish, transfer the chicken breasts and pour the pan juices over them.
- Take a bowl and whisk together the spices and cream cheese until it gets well combined.
