INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Jalapeño Pepper
1 oz Cream Cheese
1 slice Turkey Bacon
1/4 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 tbsp Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
Pinch of Salt & Pepper
PREPARATION
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Finely dice the jalapeño pepper, removing seeds for less heat if desired.
Slice the chicken breast horizontally to form thin cutlets, then gently pound to even thickness.
Season the chicken with a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
Spread a thin layer of cream cheese over each piece of chicken, then sprinkle the diced jalapeños on top.
Place a slice of turkey bacon and a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese on the filled chicken, then roll or fold the chicken to secure the filling.
Lightly coat the outside of each rolled chicken popper with whole wheat breadcrumbs.
Place the poppers seam side down on the baking tray and bake for 18-20 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the outside is slightly crispy.
Remove from the oven, let rest for a couple of minutes, and serve warm.
