This Million Dollar Chicken Bake is another exciting chicken recipe filled with rich and bold flavors. Juicy and tender chicken smothered in a velvety mixture of cheeses with bacon and green onions. This chicken dish is incredibly easy to throw together without a fuss and ready in a snap! A foolproof recipe that will never be bland. The chicken breast is perfectly cooked (I know how we all hate boring chewy chicken). The best part is this Million Dollar Chicken Bake is packed with the right flavors. And the sauce is rich and creamy.
I love this Million Dollar Chicken Bake by itself, but you can always pair this with up light side dishes such as a simple salad, roasted veggies, mashed potatoes, garlic bread, and more! Enjoy a delightful, filling cheesy chicken bake dinner with this simple recipe any time!

How to make Million Dollar Chicken Bake
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees.
Step 2: Place the cream cheese, mayo, bacon crumbles, green onion, and half of the cheddar cheese in a medium-sized bowl. Mix well until everything is blended.
Step 3: In a baking dish, place the chicken breast. On top, spread the cheese mixture and sprinkle with the rest of the cheddar cheese.
Step 4: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 to 40 minutes or until the chicken is done. Once the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F, the chicken is cooked through.
Step 5: Remove from the oven when done and serve the Chicken Bake right away garnished with extra bacon and some green onions. Enjoy!
