- 125 g (4oz) cream cheese room temperature
- 1 cup grated Mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup grated parmesan
- 2 Jalapeno peppers finely chopped
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp pepper
- salt to taste
- 4 chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220°C/430°F.
- In a bowl, combine the room temperature cream cheese, grated mozzarella and parmesan with finely chopped jalapeños, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Carefully make a slit on one side of each chicken breast. Take care not to cut all the way through, you just want to create a pocket for the stuffing.
- With a spoon, carefully stuff the chicken then close the opening and secure with toothpicks. Drizzle over the olive oil and season with paprika and salt on both sides.
- Heat a large pan over medium-high heat then add the chicken breasts.
- Allow to cook for 5-7 minutes per side then transfer the pan to a hot oven and allow to cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes then serve.
