A total showstopper of a meal with just a few hardworking ingredients. The bagel seasoning crust looks so pretty and unexpected, and the cream cheese juices up every ounce of the chicken.

Ingredients

Cooking spray

4 spray(s)

Reduced fat cream cheese (neufchâtel)

3 oz, softened

Scallions

¼ cup(s), chopped, chopped

Grape tomatoes

2 Tbsp, finely chopped

Uncooked boneless skinless chicken breast

24 oz, 4 (6-oz) breasts

Everything bagel seasoning blend

3 Tbsp

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a sheet pan with foil; coat the foil with cooking spray (or just coat a pan with cooking spray).
  2. Place the cheese in a small bowl; stir in the scallions and tomatoes. Using a sharp paring knife, cut a horizontal slit through the thickest part of each chicken breast to form a pocket, cutting almost to but not through the other side. Divide the cheese mixture evenly among the chicken, stuffing into each pocket.
  3. Spread the seasoning blend on a plate. Lightly coat the top of each chicken breast with cooking spray; dredge the top of each breast in the seasoning, pressing to adhere. Arrange the chicken on the prepared pan, seasoning side up. Bake until the chicken is cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, 25 to 30 minutes.
  4. Serving size: 1 stuffed chicken breast
