Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cups Frozen hash browns, thawed
- 2 pieces Eggs, beaten
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast, making sure not to cut all the way through.
In a small bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese until well combined.
Stuff each chicken breast pocket with the cream cheese mixture, ensuring it's evenly distributed but not overflowing. Secure the edges of the chicken with toothpicks if needed to keep the filling in place.
Place the beaten eggs in one shallow bowl and the thawed hash browns in another shallow bowl.
Dip each stuffed chicken breast into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated. Then press it into the hash browns, covering all sides evenly with the potato shreds.
Place the hash brown-coated chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the hash brown crust is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Remove any toothpicks if used.
Serve hot and enjoy your Hash Brown Crusted Stuffed Chicken Breasts!
