• Add the shredded chicken, green onions, bacon pieces, salt and pepper, cream cheese, chili powder and cumin to the bowl, and mix until well blended.
• Fill the empty avocado shells with the filling, and place into a well greased baking dish.
• Sprinkle with the shredded cheese and bake for 15-20 minutes.

CHICKEN STUFFED BAKED AVOCADOS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Scoop out some of the flesh in the center of each avocado; place into mixing bowl. Add chicken, cream cheese, tomatoes, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper; mix well to combine. Scoop spoonfuls of chicken mixture into the wells of each avocado; top each with generous amount of Parmesan cheese. Place avocado halves, face-up, in muffin cups to stabilize.

OVEN-ROASTED CHICKEN BREASTS STUFFED WITH AVOCADO AND BACON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Lightly spritz bottom and sides of a medium baking pan with olive oil spray.
• Using a sharp knife, carefully slice into the side of each chicken breast to form a pocket but do not slice all the way through. Season the insides and outsides with salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine diced avocado and the bacon. Divide the mixture in half and stuff each chicken breast. Use toothpicks to secure the pockets and place into baking pan.
• Mix together panko, mozzarella cheese, and olive oil in a small bowl. Brush 1 tablespoon pesto on top of each breast. Cover each breast with the panko mixture, pressing into the pesto so mixture adheres.
• Roast in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
