Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 1 cup Blue cheese, crumbled
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1.5 cups Corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
- 0.5 cup Ranch dressing
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled blue cheese, softened cream cheese, and garlic powder. Mix well until creamy and smooth.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through.
Stuff each chicken breast with the blue cheese mixture and use toothpicks to seal the opening if necessary. Season the outside of the chicken with salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the stuffed chicken breasts for 3–4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
While the chicken bakes, prepare the Cajun ranch corn sauce. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the corn kernels to the saucepan and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the heavy cream, Cajun seasoning, and ranch dressing. Simmer the mixture for 5–7 minutes, until slightly thickened.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning as needed with additional Cajun seasoning or salt.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Plate the chicken and spoon the Cajun ranch corn sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
