Notes
To ensure your Crispy Bacon Chicken Cheddar Loaded Bazooka Bombs turn out perfectly every time, here are a few tips and tricks:
– Make sure to cook the chicken pieces until they are no longer pink in the center.
– For the best texture, cook the bacon until it’s crispy and golden brown before adding it to the filling.
– Feel free to experiment with the filling by adding diced vegetables or trying different cheese varieties.
– Brushing the tops of the bombs with a beaten egg wash before baking will give them a beautiful golden-brown color and a crispy exterior.
