Artichoke Bacon Chicken...another huge winner!!!  of course, how could you go wrong when there is bacon involved???

Here is what you need...

one small jar of marinated artichoke halves
1 teaspoon garlic powder
four chicken breast
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Italian cheese blend (shredded), plus 1/4 cup Italian cheese blend
salt and pepper
8 strips of bacon chopped and cooked until crisp

Drain the artichokes reserving the liquid..add the liquid to a large baggie along with the garlic powder.  Mix together and add the chicken breast.  Let marinate 30 minutes to 8 hours.
Chop the artichokes and add to the mayonnaise and cheese mixing well...season with salt and pepper.  Remove chicken from the marinade and place in a 9x13 pan sprayed with PAM.  Divide the artichoke mixture between the four chicken breast...spreading evenly on top of the chicken.  Sprinkle each chicken breast with the bacon and the remaining shredded cheese.  Bake at 400 degrees for 30-40 minutes...you can turn on the broiler at the end to crisp up the top if you like!  This recipe was adapted from the blog...lovely little snippets!
