A chicken dish that has sweet, savory and spicy flavors along with plenty of cheese is perfect for your next mealtime. These chicken breasts pull out all the stops when they’re stuffed with fresh ingredients and Sargento® Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese - Traditional Cut before being baked to melted perfection.
Ingredients
- 1-1/4 cups (5 oz.) Sargento® Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese - Traditional Cut, divided
- 1/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. mango chutney, large pieces of mango chopped, divided
- 1/2 cup finely diced apple
- 1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
- 4 (5 to 6 oz.) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves,
- 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs, multigrain or whole wheat*
- Paprika or smoked paprika (optional)
Directions
- Combine 2 Tbsp. of the chutney, apple and cayenne pepper in a small bowl; mix well. Stir in 3/4 cup of the cheese.
- Cut a pocket in side of each chicken breast, taking care not to cut through top or bottom of chicken.* Stuff cheese mixture into chicken, pressing edges together to enclose stuffing. Place chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet. Brush remaining 1/4 cup chutney over tops of chicken breasts. Combine breadcrumbs and remaining 1/2 cup cheese; sprinkle over chicken. Sprinkle paprika lightly over chicken if desired.
- Bake in a preheated 375°F oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
