Directions:Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Sauté bell peppers and garlic in oil until soft. Place in a bowl and reserve to cool for 5 minutes.
Add jalapeños, spices, and both kinds of cheese to the bowl. Mix well.
Cut chicken breasts lengthwise partway through, along the thinnest part, so you can open it like a book.
Add a big dollop of cheese batter and close with a toothpick. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown, in oil or butter. Place in a baking dish.
You can place the remaining cheese batter on top or just in the baking dish.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until the chicken breasts are thoroughly cooked. Remember to remove the toothpick before serving.
Serve with leafy greens, a generous amount of guacamole, and sour cream. |
