Ingredients

The ingredients are:

  • 1 1/2 cups dry breadcrumbs
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 3 to 4 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (optional)
  • Filling:
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup finely shredded mozzarella cheese another 1/4 cup won’t hurt)
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning (rubbed between fingers to release the flavor)
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Pound the chicken flat between two pieces of waxed paper or plastic wrap.

  • Step 2: In a bowl combine all filling ingredients until very well combined.

  • Step 3: Spread the filling mixture onto each of the chicken breasts; starting at the short end roll up each breast, don’t worry about covering the whole breast with the filling (if desired you may secure each breast with a long toothpick but it is not necessary as after the breasts are chilled they will hold together).

  • Step 4: Place the breasts on a large plate or platter; cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for minimum 3 hours or up to 24 hours (the longer the better).

  • Step 5: Place the melted butter in bowl.

  • Step 6: In a shallow bowl combine the breadcrumbs with dried parsley, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, black pepper and seasoned salt.

  • Step 7: Gently coat each rolled breast firstly into melted butter then coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Place the coated breasts into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish spacing slightly apart.

  • Step 8: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (set oven rack to bottom position). Bake for about 35-40 minutes (some of the cream cheese mixture might spill out while cooking, just scoop it onto the plate when serving).
