Bacon Wrapped Garlic Chicken

4 oz. cream cheese
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp dried basil leaves
1/8 tsp black pepper
12 chicken strips (chicken breast cut into strips)
1 package bacon
1 tbsp butter or margarine
In a bowl, combine cream cheese, garlic, basil and pepper. Set aside.

On a cooking sheet, place a piece of wax paper, then place six chicken strips on it. Top each piece with an even amount of the cream cheese mixture, then top with another chicken strip. Carefully wrap strips of bacon around each piece... you can use either one or two pieces, depending if you are watching your calories!

Flash freeze in the freezer. As soon as they are frozen, store in a ziploc freezer bag. If you will be leaving them in the freezer for more than a few weeks, wrap each individually in freezer wrap before placing in freezer bag.

On cooking day, thaw in refrigerator. In a large skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter or margarine, then add chicken. Cook for three minutes on medium then using tongs flip each piece over. Reduce heat to low, cover skillet and cook for 8 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink. Serve.
