INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Reduced-Fat Cream Cheese
1/4 cup Light Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Fresh Jalapeño (sliced)
2 tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs
2 sprays Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Onion Powder
1/2 tsp Paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly coat a baking dish with olive oil cooking spray.
Place the chicken breast in the dish and season both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
In a small bowl, mix the reduced-fat cream cheese with the light mozzarella cheese until well combined.
Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the top of the chicken breast.
Scatter the sliced fresh jalapeños over the cheese layer.
Sprinkle the panko breadcrumbs evenly on top to create a crispy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the topping is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, then serve and enjoy.
