Ingredients
Scale
Seasoning Mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Chicken and Cheese Filling
- 1 pound thinly sliced chicken breasts
- 5.3 ounces garlic & fine herbs Boursin cheese (1 package)
- ½ cup freshly shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Season Chicken: In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Sprinkle this seasoning mixture evenly over both sides of the thinly sliced chicken breasts, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
- Fill and Roll: Spread a generous layer of the garlic and fine herbs Boursin cheese over each seasoned chicken breast. Then sprinkle freshly shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Carefully roll up each chicken breast starting from one end, making a tight roll. Place each roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet to keep them intact during baking.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. Bake until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), ensuring it is safe to eat and juicy inside.
Notes
- For even cooking, use chicken breasts that are thinly sliced or pounded thin.
- You can substitute the Boursin cheese with any creamy, herb-flavored cheese if unavailable.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after baking before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
- Serve with a side of steamed vegetables or a light salad for a balanced meal.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy when checking chicken temperature.
