Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and well-mixed.
  3. Place the chicken breasts into a baking dish and generously season them with salt and pepper.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over each chicken breast, ensuring they’re well-coated.
  5. Pour the chicken broth around the chicken in the dish for added moisture.
  6. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the cheese is bubbly.
  7. Serve hot with a side of roasted vegetables or fluffy mashed potatoes.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container. For longer storage, freeze individual portions. Reheat gently to avoid drying out the chicken.
