Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Use a meat mallet to pound the chicken until it's about 1/4-inch thick.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully incorporated.
Spoon the cheese mixture onto one end of each flattened chicken breast. Roll up tightly, tucking in the sides as you go, and secure with toothpicks.
Set up three separate bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs.
Dip each chicken roll in the flour, then the eggs, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken roll ups for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Transfer the seared chicken roll ups to the prepared baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove from the oven and let the roll ups rest for 5 minutes. Remove the toothpicks before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite side dish and enjoy!
