Number Of Ingredients 6

8 -10 chicken breast tenders
1/2-1 cup Cheez-It crackers

salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Take the milk, egg, a little salt and pepper and whisk together in a bowl, put aside.
  • Crush the cheeze its in a ziploc bag, okay to have small chunks here and there, pour onto a plate.
  • Take chicken and dip in milk mixture and then roll in cheeze its.
  • Place on another plate and continue until all chicken is coated.
  • I love to run each piece through x2 to get extra coating and use the whole mix.

  • Cool and serve, very yummy with ranch dressing as a dip.

Cheez-It Chicken Stuffed With Cheese image

I invented this recipe because I had Cheezits, cheese, and chicken and was tired of cooking the same thing all of time. Well, my husband loves it! He insisted that I post this recipe for everyone to try!

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups crushed Cheez-It crackers
1 tablespoon breadcrumbs
1 egg
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (use thick ones)
1 (8 ounce) package monterey jack cheese (use your favorite) or 1 (8 ounce) package cheddar cheese (use your favorite)
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Using the bottom of a measuring cup, crush the Cheez-its so that they may be used as breading and mix with your breadcrumbs.
  • Cut your cheese into stick shapes (big enough to be put inside your chicken). Trim all excess fat off chicken and with a slim, very sharp knife carve a tunnel inside of the thickest part of each chicken breasts, by inserting the knife and turning it inside of the chicken (if you poke through the outside it's O. K. just bake that side up).
  • Stuff the cheese into the chicken.
  • Dip your breasts into the beaten egg and roll them into the Cheez-it breading.
  • Bake them for 10 minutes then put a dollop of butter on top of each breast.
  • And bake for 15 more minutes or until chicken is cooked all the way through.
