INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Mozzarella Cheese
1 medium Jalapeño
2 tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs
Seasonings (garlic powder, salt, pepper)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat dry the chicken breast and use a small knife to make a pocket or several slits in the thickest part of the chicken.
In a small bowl, mix together the low-fat cream cheese, reduced-fat mozzarella, and finely diced jalapeño. Add garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
Stuff the cheese mixture into the pocket or slits in the chicken breast, ensuring an even distribution.
Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the chicken to form a crispy topping.
Place the chicken on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the topping is golden and crisp.
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving.
