Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup(s) refried beans, fat free
4 - wedges light spreadable swiss cheese (the laughing cow), room temperature
1/4 cup(s) cheddar cheese, shredded, fat free
16 - tortilla chips, fat free (popchips or poptillas - see below)
1 teaspoon(s) taco seasoning mix, low sodium
4 - chicken breast halves, skinless & boneless, raw, pounded to 1/3
- salt & pepper, to taste
1/4 cup(s) taco sauce, your choice of heat
TOPPING:
- sour cream, lite
- salsa, your choice of heat

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray & set aside.
  • FILLING: Combine beans, cheese wedges & shredded cheese in a bowl. Mix thoroughly & set aside.
  • Put chips in a sealable plastic bag & crush with your hands or a rolling pin. Add taco seasoning & give it a good shake to mix. Transfer crumb mixture to a plate & set aside. POPCHIPS: http://www.popchips.com/# POPTILLAS: http://poptillas.com/by-brand/poptillas
  • Place cutlets flat on a clean, dry surface & season with salt & black pepper. Spoon filling onto the centers of the cutlets, dividing it evenly among them. Carefully roll each cutlet up over the filling (which may ooze a little, but don't worry!) & secure with toothpicks, if needed. Transfer to the baking sheet.
  • Cover each stuffed cutlet with 1 tbsp taco sauce, using the back of the spoon or your fingers to coat. Coat cutlets with crumb mixture.
  • Cover the baking sheet with foil & bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Carefully remove foil. Bake until chicken is cooked through & outsides are crispy, about 15 additional minutes.
  • Let cool slightly & top with sour cream & salsa.
