- Spread butter on each chicken piece.
- Spread about 3 Tbsp. cream cheese on each.

- NOTE: If your family likes spicy food, use a whole jalapeno, seeds and all, discarding only the stem. For a medium version, remove seeds from the jalapeno. For a mild version, use half of a seeded jalapeno.
- Place a jalapeno at the edge of the cheese-topped side, then roll up chicken piece around the jalapeno (with the cheese on the inside of the roll). Repeat with ole jalapeno, seeds and all, discarding only the stem.
- For a medium version, remove seeds from the jalapeno. For a mild version, use half of a seeded jalapeno.
- Preheat oven to 400F. If using, wrap a slice of bacon around each chicken roll. Place rolls, seam side down, in a shallow baking dish. Bakefor 40 min, or possibly till chicken is tender. Complete cooking by broiling 5 min or possibly till bacon is crisp.
