Cheesy Jalapeño Popper Baked Stuffed Chicken 

Ingredients: 

2 slices center cut bacon, cooked and crumbled

3 jalapeños, chopped (remove seeds for milder)

3 oz lowfat cream cheese, softened

4 oz reduced fat shredded cheddar cheese

2 tbsp chopped scallions

8 thin sliced skinless chicken breast cutlets

1/2 cup Italian seasoned whole wheat breadcrumbs

1/2 teaspoon lime juice

1 tbsp olive oil

salt and fresh pepper

olive oil non-stick spray

Directions:

Wash and dry chicken cutlets, season with salt and pepper.  Preheat oven to 450°.  spray a baking dish with non-stick spray.

Combine cream cheese, cheddar, scallions, jalapeño and bacon crumbles in a medium bowl.

Lay out  chicken cutlets and spread 2 tbsp of cream cheese mixture on each cutlet. Loosely roll each one, secure the ends with toothpicks to prevent the cheese from oozing out.

Place breadcrumbs in a bowl; in a second bowl combine olive oil, lime juice, salt and pepper.

Dip chicken in lime-oil mixture, then in breadcrumbs and place seam side down on a baking dish. Repeat with the remaining chicken. When finished, lightly spray the top of the chicken with oil spray.
