Rotel Bacon Chicken

Sorry for not having a picture. I made this a few days ago and it was devoured before a picture could be taken!

Ingredients:
4 boneless chicken breasts (thawed)
1 can (10oz) Rotel tomatoes and green chilis
1 pkg (8oz) cream cheese
4 oz sour cream
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter/margarine (softened/melted)
Chives, cut small. About 4 stalks worth.
bacon (varies)

Directions:
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-Pound chicken breasts to about 1/4 inch thickness. This doesn't have to be exact.
-Lay bacon strips over chicken breasts and roll the chicken. Secure with toothpicks. (Roll like you would     cinnamon rolls).
-In a small pan, mix butter, cream cheese, Rotel, sour cream, chives. Cook on low until melted & combined.
-Place chicken in a baking pan. The sides need to be at least 2 inches high or so. I use a glass square baking pan.
-Spoon mixture over rolled chicken. Make sure to cover all of the chicken.
-Cook for 45 minutes, checking half way through to spoon more of the mixture over the chicken.

I know the ingredients don't make a whole lot of sense but it's wonderful! The heat from the chilies is balanced by the cream cheese and sour cream. Let me know what you think!
