Ingredients
- – 4 chicken breasts (about 1 kg)
- – 1 tbsp olive oil (15 ml)
- – 1/2 tsp paprika (2.5 ml)
- – 1/2 tsp salt (2.5 ml)
- – 1/2 block cream cheese (225 g)
- – 1 cup grated cheddar cheese (about 100 g)
- – 4 jalapenos, finely diced (make sure to remove the seeds!)
- – Salad
- – Roasted baby potatoes
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 375 F. Make horizontal cuts across the chicken breasts, ensuring they are deep enough to be filled with the cheese blend. Pour olive oil over the chicken and massage with paprika and salt.
- In a large bowl, heat the cream cheese in the microwave on high for 45 seconds, ensuring the dish is covered to prevent splatters. Once heated, mix in the cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos.
- Fill each cut in the chicken breasts with the jalapeno and cheese mixture. Place in the oven and cook for 30-32 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly done. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Note: Remove jalapeno seeds before dicing for desired spiciness level
- Second note: Ensure chicken is fully cooked by checking internal temp with a meat thermometer
- Third note: Customize flavors by trying different cheeses for the filling
