Jalapeno and Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast
Simple tasty stuffed chicken breast recipe for one.
Ingredients
Directions
- Let the chicken breast thaw and place inside a sturdy Ziploc bag. Use a meat tenderizer or a hammer and flatten out the chicken to about the size of your palm.
- Take the elongated flattened breast and put the filling lengthwise, so each layer of the roll will have some filling. Take a wedge of cream cheese (like Laughing Cow), crumbling it from one end to another.
- Dice the jalapeno, don't put in any seeds, unless you like it really hot.
- Roll the chicken from one end to another. Secure the sides with toothpicks to make sure that the cheese does not spill out.
- Season the outside with a dash of olive oil, seasoning and pepper.
- Pre-heat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Lightly grease or spray a baking sheet. Pop in the oven for 40 minutes, or until the inside is nice and done.

I thought it was perfect! I added a non-salt seasoning to the outside....perfecto! And tons of protein!

I replaced the cream cheese with light feta cheese--DELICIOUS! Also, I didn't have a meat tenderizer, so I butterflied the chicken.

I felt like it needed an additional flavor. The cream cheese wasn't powerful enough to go with the chicken. Otherwise a good dish.
