  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 small onion, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 yellow bell pepper, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

4 oz pepper jack cheese, cubed

4 oz cream cheese

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 Tbsp chili powder

1 Tbsp cumin

1 tsp garlic powder

To serve:

Salsa

Sour Cream

Guacamole


Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Set out 4 oz of a cream cheese block to soften while you prep the veggies.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium high heat.  Add the peppers and onions and cook until softened and beginning to char.  Remove from the heat.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and pepper jack cheese cubes.  Add the veggie mixture and mix to combine well.  

Slice a pocket lengthwise in the chicken breast.  Stuff with the veggie and cheese mixture.  In a small bowl, combine the spices.  Generously sprinkle the spices over the stuffed chicken.  Place on a baking sheet and bake at 375 for 20-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.  Serve topped with salsa, sour cream, and guacamole.
