INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 ounce Light Cream Cheese
1 ounce Low-Fat Cheddar Cheese, Shredded
1 Jalapeño
2 tablespoons Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a small baking dish with a bit of olive oil.
Place the chicken breast in the baking dish. Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in the thicker part of the chicken without cutting all the way through.
In a small bowl, mix together the light cream cheese and shredded low-fat cheddar cheese. Finely chop the jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat if desired) and stir it into the cheese mixture.
Stuff the chicken pocket with the jalapeño popper filling, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
In another bowl, combine the whole wheat bread crumbs with the teaspoon of olive oil. Press this mixture on top of the chicken to form a crispy topping.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the topping is golden and crisp.
Remove from the oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
