Next, we heat a skillet and add the bacon cut into pieces, frying it until crispy. Then we transfer the bacon to a plate and begin frying the diced chicken fillet in the bacon fat until it turns white. We also move the fillet to the plate, then add the sliced mushrooms and onions to the skillet, frying everything until golden brown. Now we combine the fillet, mushrooms, onions, and half of the bacon, adding mayonnaise, yogurt, minced garlic, grated cheese, salt, and pepper to taste. We mix everything together and spoon the prepared filling into the zucchini halves. Finally, we top with diced tomatoes and grated Parmesan cheese.
