PIMIENTO CHEESE CHICKEN
Instead of using pimiento cheese as a sandwich filling, try using it as a filling for skillet-cooked chicken breasts. The traditional pimiento cheese recipes call for the classic Southern spread served on toast or in a simple sandwich. By stuffing the tangy pimento cheese spread into chicken breasts, you dress up a classic recipe without adding much work at all. The impressive-looking results of stuffed chicken breasts belie the ease of preparation. You can stuff them up to a day ahead, keep refrigerated, and then simply cook and serve. This is a super simple makeover to a weeknight chicken dinner.

- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayo, cheddar, pimientos and a sprinkle of garlic powder and onion powder and mix together until well combined.
- Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice the breasts from the side (creating a top and bottom) almost all the way through. Open each breast at the slit and distribute the pimento cheese mixture evenly between the breasts, placing it inside the open chicken. Spread cheese across the surface and close the breast, folding the top half back over the pimento cheese.
- Combine the flour and Cajun seasoning in a small dish and stir together. Place the stuffed breasts in a Ziploc bag and add the Cajun flour mixture. Lightly flip the bag around until chicken is coated with flour. Place the beaten egg white in a shallow dish and the panko crumbs in a second shallow dish. Remove each stuffed breast from the flour bag and dip it in the egg white, turning to coat. Then move the coated breast to the dish of panko crumbs and coat it on all sides.
