INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Reduced-Fat Cream Cheese
1 medium Jalapeño
1/4 cup Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken breast dry and, if necessary, pound it to an even thickness for uniform cooking.
In a small bowl, mix together the reduced-fat cream cheese, finely diced jalapeño, and shredded low-fat cheddar cheese until well combined.
Place the chicken breast on the prepared baking sheet and evenly spread the jalapeño popper mixture over the top of the chicken.
Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly on top to create a crispy crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the topping is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and serve warm.
