Here's another tasty treat that will caress your taste buds. It's another recipe from my private collection that I'll be sharing from time to time. Each recipe is designed to ease the burden of creating interesting, unusual meals. Enjoy!

 

CHICKEN CHIPOTLE

Ingredients

A thick chicken breast

1 clove garlic, finely chopped

2 large roasted sweet Italian peppers, chopped into 1 inch portions

4 tblsp Extra Virgin olive oil

2 tblsp capers

6 slices Monterey-Jack cheese cut into strips about ½ inch wide by 2 inches long

½ cup Progresso Italian bread crumbs

½ cup Key West Brand Chipotle sauce - if your store doesn't carry this brand, substitute another chipotle sauce.

 

Split the breast, but do not cut through. Pull the split line apart as much as possible to create a large cavity to hold the ingredients of the filling. Fill the split with the cheese, roasted peppers and capers. Place the breast in a dish with concave dimensions or on aluminum foil with corners curled up, after using Pam or a similar product to avoid sticking.

 

Saute the garlic in the olive oil very briefly – just flash the garlic quickly and remove from heat.

Pour the garlic and olive oil over the breast. Cover with the bread crumbs and evenly distribute the Key West Chipotle sauce.

 

Bake at 350 degrees for about 35 minutes.

This recipe is for one serving – multiply for more.
