Mash Gorgonzola cheese, parsley, green onion, and garlic together in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Stuff each chicken breast with 1/4 cup cheese mixture. Wrap 2 slices bacon around each chicken breast, securing bacon to the chicken with wooden toothpicks. Arrange stuffed chicken in the prepared baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
