Chicken Chia Stuffed Surprise
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 12 cup cream cheese (filling starts here)
- 12 cup shredded colby cheese
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- optional feta (to taste)
- 14 teaspoon dried marjoram
- 14 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
- 1 12 teaspoons fresh dill
- 12 cup chia seeds (coating starts here)
- 1 tablespoon quinoa flour (or all-purpose flour)
- 14 teaspoon black pepper
- 14 teaspoon dried garlic
- 12 teaspoon dried marjoram
- 12 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
- Mix all the ingredients for the filling in a single bowl.
- In another bowl add all the ingredients for the coating.
- Mix well.
- Optionally, you can use a mortar and grind the coating ingredients with a pestle.
- If so move the mixture to another bowl that is more easily washed, once completed, so that you can dip the chicken into it later.
- Slice chicken breasts partially, so there is an opening on only one side, making a pocket.
- Stuff the filling into each of the chicken breasts.
- To better close the pocket you can use a toothpick though I find the coating keeps it closed enough and haven't bothered.
- If you have extra filling you can add it to the outside before coating the chicken.
- Coat each chicken breast with the coating by dipping it into the bowl.
- If you run out you can easily make more.
- Add each coated piece of chicken to a baking dish.
- If you didn't close the pocket then place it open side down to help prevent it from opening.
- If you have leftover coating sprinkle it on top of the chicken.
- Once completed bake it at 375 for 45 minutes to an hour or whenever the chicken is done.
