BROCCOLI CHEESE STUFFED CHICKEN
This cheesy broccoli chicken is the perfect comfort food on a cold day. By buying thin-sliced chicken cutlets, you save yourself the work of slicing them yourself, however feel free to cut regular-sized chicken breasts if you prefer. Slice in half horizontally, then pound thin to about a 1/4-inch thickness. Feel free to change up the flavor of The Laughing Cow® cheese for variety.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Pound chicken cutlets to 1/4-inch thickness between two pieces of plastic wrap. Sprinkle both sides of cutlets with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Mash cheese wedges with a fork in a small bowl and stir to a creamy consistency. Add broccoli and shredded Cheddar cheese and stir to combine.
- Spread broccoli filling evenly over the middle of each cutlet. Start from one end, roll cutlets up and secure edges with toothpicks.
- Combine flour and paprika in a shallow bowl. Dredge chicken rolls in the mixture.
- Heat olive oil in a oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place chicken rolls into skillet and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn over and brown the other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
- Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 14 to 16 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove toothpicks and serve.

Tips:
1. Brine the chicken breasts: Brining the chicken breasts in a simple salt and water solution for at least 30 minutes helps to keep them moist and juicy during cooking. 2. Don't overcook the chicken: Cooking the chicken breasts for too long will make them dry and tough. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) before removing them from the oven. 3. Use fresh vegetables: Fresh broccoli and tomatoes will give the dish the best flavor. If you don't have fresh vegetables on hand, you can use frozen vegetables, but be sure to thaw them completely before using. 4. Season the rice: Don't forget to season the rice with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to add flavor to the dish. 5. Serve immediately: Cheesy broccoli-stuffed chicken with tomato rice is best served immediately after it is made. The chicken will be tender and juicy, the vegetables will be crisp, and the rice will be flavorful.
Conclusion:
Cheesy broccoli-stuffed chicken with tomato rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and juicy, the vegetables are crisp, and the rice is flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
