Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 20-25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- While onions are caramelizing, prepare the chicken. Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to 1/4-inch thickness.
- In a bowl, combine cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, parsley, and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture over each chicken breast. Top with caramelized onions.
- Roll up each chicken breast tightly and secure with toothpicks.
- Place the chicken rolls in a baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove toothpicks before serving.
Notes
Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal. For extra flavor, brush the chicken rolls with melted butter or olive oil before baking.
