Healthy Recipe Rave
I made this last night and it was really good. It's fairly easy. I'd recommend marinating the chicken first - it made a big difference. Best of all - it's only 394 calories!
Jalapeno Popper Chicken -
4 ? 5 ounce chicken breasts
4 oz reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup part-skim shredded Cheddar or Colby cheese
1 tsp olive oil
4 jalapenos, chopped (ribs and seeds removed)
1 cup Panko
2 tsp taco seasoning
1 egg**
Preheat oven to 350 F and lightly grease a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add jalapenos and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Mix together cream cheese, shredded cheese, and jalapeno peppers. Use a knife to make a pocket in each chicken breast and stuff with jalapeno mixture. Secure pocket with toothpicks.
Mix together Panko and taco seasoning on a plate. Whisk egg in a separate bowl. Dip chicken into egg and then into bread crumbs. Repeat with all chicken breasts and place in baking dish.**
**I didn't use an egg - just used the chicken as it was coated in the Italian Dressing I marinated it in.
Bake for 45 minutes. Serve. Yield: 4 servings.
