A delightful twist on the classic Chicken Kiev, featuring a spicy and cheesy filling wrapped in tender chicken.
Flatten the chicken breasts using a meat mallet to an even thickness.
Place the chicken between two sheets of plastic wrap to prevent mess while flattening.
Mix the diced green chilies and shredded cheeses in a bowl.
Ensure the cheese mixture is evenly combined for consistent flavor.
Place a portion of the cheese mixture in the center of each chicken breast, then roll up tightly and secure with toothpicks.
Roll the chicken tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
Combine breadcrumbs, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.
Use a fork to mix the spices evenly into the breadcrumbs.
Dip each chicken roll in melted butter, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture.
Press the breadcrumbs onto the chicken to ensure a good coating.
Place the coated chicken rolls in a greased baking dish and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Chilling helps the coating adhere better during baking.
Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the toothpicks and serve the chicken rolls with salsa on the side.
Garnish with fresh cilantro or a lime wedge for added flavor.
