Cream Cheese Chicken Breasts Food

EVERYTHING CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• Break the bagel into small pieces and place in a blender or food processor. Pulse to create crumbs (don't make them too fine).
• Combine the breadcrumbs with 2 tablespoons everything seasoning and olive oil. Mix well to combine. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, garlic powder, parmesan cheese, and cheddar cheese.
• Cut each chicken breast lengthwise (so it opens like a book) but don't cut all the way through. Fill each breast with the cream cheese mixture. Season with salt & pepper.
• Mix beaten egg with 1 tablespoon of water. Dredge each chicken breast in the flour and dip into the beaten egg. Roll in the bagel crumbs and place on a baking sheet.
• Sprinkle with remaining everything seasoning.
• Bake on prepared pan for 35-40 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F. Rest 5 minutes before serving.

STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH BACON AND CREAM CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet and a baking pan with foil.
• Lay bacon strips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Place bacon in the preheated oven and cook until browned and crisp, about 15 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and chop. Keep the oven on.
• Slice chicken breasts horizontally, without going all the way through.
• Combine cream cheese, 1/4 cup of Cheddar cheese, green onions, and cilantro in a bowl. Add chopped bacon and mix to combine.
• Open chicken breasts at the hinge point and spread cream cheese mixture in a thin layer over each one. Close and transfer to the prepared baking pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Top with remaining Cheddar and bake until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Let cool slightly before serving.

CHICKEN IN POOR MAN'S RICH CREAM CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Sprinkle chicken with seasoning salt and garlic powder, and set aside.
• In a microwaveable bowl, mix cream cheese, milk, garlic powder and pepper.
• Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, checking and stirring until cream cheese is melted.
• Heat olive oil in a saute pan.
• Add chicken to pan and saute at medium heat adding small amounts of water to pan, as needed, so that chicken doesn't get too dry or stick to pan. The chicken will release juices that blend with the water.
• When chicken is cooked through, but there is still some of this "juicy water" in the pan, add the sauce to the pan and cook until heated through.
• Remove chicken with a slotted spoon and arrange on a bed of white rice.
• Spoon or pour sauce over the chicken and then sprinkle with parsley or chives.
• NOTE: I usually serve this dish with a side of steamed broccoli drizzled in heated olive oil (I season the heated olive oil with lime juice and garlic powder). YUMMY!

BACON-WRAPPED CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN BREAST

• Pound the chicken breast until flat (pound just enough to roll up easily).

• Roll up the chicken breast (it does not matter if a little of the cream cheese comes out of the sides).
• Wrap 2 slices of bacon around each breast, secure with a toothpick then place into prepared baking dish.
• In a bowl mix undiluted soup with Parmesan cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, milk, onion, salt and black pepper; mix until well combined then pour over chicken.
• Bake for about 45 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle with cheddar cheese (if using) then return to oven for a few minutes to melt cheese.
• Delicious!
