These juicy stuffed chicken rolls are a weeknight winner: tender chicken wrapped around creamy cheese and tomato, then baked until golden and bubbling.

Ingredients
- Chicken fillet
- 140 g (2/3 cup) cream cheese
- 1 onion
- Tomatoes
- Processed cheese slices
- 200 g (2 cups) grated mozzarella
- Mayonnaise (or sour cream)
- Garlic
- Salt
Instructions
- Slice the fillet lengthwise and pound with the blunt side of a knife. Spread each piece with cream cheese, add a processed cheese slice and a tomato wedge, and roll up.
- Arrange the rolls in a dish and brush with garlic mayonnaise (sour cream works too). Bake at 180 C (350 F) for 20 minutes.
- Top with grated mozzarella, raise the heat to 200 C (400 F), and bake 15 minutes more until golden.
- Sprinkle with cheese and serve with a side.
Tips
- Pound the chicken to an even thickness so the rolls cook evenly and stay juicy.
- Do not overfill the rolls, or the cheese will escape during baking; secure them with toothpicks if needed and remove the toothpicks before serving.
- For safe cooking, check the food safety guidance at USDA, and find more chicken inspiration at Allrecipes.
