Step by step

Method

5 steps

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375.

  2. 2

    In a small skillet over medium-high heat, combine the bread crumbs and oil. Stirring often, toast until crispy and golden brown. Transfer bread crumbs to a small bowl and mix in the taco seasoning.

  3. 3

    Beat eggs in a shallow bowl or rimmed plate.

  4. 4

    In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese and diced jalapenos.

  5. 5

    Using a small, sharp knife, either cut a pocket in each breast or butterfly them. If they're especially thick, I like to pound them a couple times with the flat side of a meat mallet to thin them out some first - too thick and it takes so long to cook through that the bread…. Taste for salt and serve when it looks done.
