Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken breasts between plastic wrap and pound them to an even thickness.

  2. 2

    Make the Filling

    In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  3. 3

    Stuff the Chicken

    Spread the cheese mixture evenly over each chicken breast. Roll the chicken breasts tightly, securing with toothpicks if necessary.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Bake

    Transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the juices run clear.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle with lime juice and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.
