Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Chicken Breast Recipes

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon butter
1 (4.5 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 egg
½ cup cheese-flavored crackers (such as Cheez-It Duoz Sharp Cheddar and Parmesan®), crushed
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 ¼ cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
6 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x12-inch baking dish.
  • Place a chicken breast between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken breast with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Repeat with the other chicken breasts.
  • Melt the butter in a small skillet, and cook the mushrooms until they begin to brown, about 8 minutes. Set aside. Beat egg in a shallow bowl. Place the cracker crumbs in another shallow bowl.
  • In a bowl, mix together the mushrooms, cream cheese, 1 cup of Cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese; spread the mixture generously over the chicken. Roll the chicken breasts up, dip each into beaten egg, and roll the bundles in cracker crumbs. Place into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the bundles with the remaining 1/4 cup of Cheddar cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is cooked through, the filling has melted, and the crumbs are golden brown, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a roll should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Choose flavorful fillings: The success of your chicken bundles heavily relies on the flavors of your filling. Experiment with different combinations of herbs, spices, and vegetables to create a filling that complements the chicken well. Some popular options include spinach and feta, sundried tomatoes and pesto, or a mixture of sautéed mushrooms, onions, and garlic.
  • Use high-quality chicken: Opt for organic or free-range chicken breasts for the best flavor and texture. If possible, try to get boneless, skinless chicken breasts to save time on preparation.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can quickly become dry and tough if overcooked. Cook them until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for food safety and juiciness.
  • Make sure the bundles are tightly sealed: To prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking, make sure to wrap the chicken bundles tightly with prosciutto or bacon. Use toothpicks or kitchen twine to secure the bundles if needed.
  • Cook the bundles over medium heat: Cooking the bundles over medium heat allows the chicken to cook evenly without burning the prosciutto or bacon. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain a consistent temperature.
  • Let the bundles rest before serving: Once the bundles are cooked through, let them rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Chicken bundles are a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or as part of a party spread. With endless possibilities for fillings and cooking methods, there's a chicken bundle recipe for every taste and occasion. So, experiment with different flavors and techniques to create your own signature chicken bundle recipe and impress your family and friends with this culinary delight.
