INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. garlic salt
  • 1 ripe avocado, peeled, seeded, sliced
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
 

DIRECTIONS

  • 1

    Using a sharp knife, cut a parallel slit in the side of each chicken breast, forming a pocket, taking care not to cut through top or bottom of chicken. (Or, ask your meat retailer to do this for you at time of purchase).

  • 2

    Mix 1 cup of the cheese, olives and green onion; stuff into pockets of chicken. Place chicken on a foil-lined baking sheet. Combine paprika, oregano and garlic salt; rub mixture over chicken. Coat chicken lightly with cooking spray (preferably olive oil spray).

  • 3

    Bake in a preheated 400°F oven 17 to 18 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Sprinkle remaining cheese mixture over chicken. Continue baking 2 minutes or until cheese has melted. Top chicken with avocado and sour cream; sprinkle with additional paprika, if desired.
