Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lay the chicken breasts flat on a cutting board and season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Cut the cream cheese into 4 equal pieces, then place one piece in the center of each chicken breast.
Wrap each chicken breast tightly with 2 slices of bacon, ensuring the cream cheese is enclosed and secure. Use toothpicks if needed to keep the bacon in place.
Heat olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Once hot, sear the chicken breasts on both sides for about 2-3 minutes per side until the bacon is lightly browned.
Remove the skillet from the heat and carefully pour the chicken broth into the skillet. Do not pour directly over the chicken breasts to avoid washing off the seasoning.
Cover the skillet with aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes to crisp up the bacon.
Once done, remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve alongside your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad.
