Fajita Hasselback Chicken Recipe by Tasty

Ingredients

for 4 servings

4 chicken breasts
½ onion, diced
½ yellow bell pepper, diced
½ red bell pepper, diced
½ green pepper, diced
2 tablespoons
fajita spice mix
3 tablespoons
salsa
½ cup
cheddar cheese, grated (50 g)

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Slice into the chicken several times, about ½ cm (¼ inch) apart, but only cut about 85% of the way through, leaving the bottom intact.
Cook the onions and peppers over a medium heat until softened, then stir in the fajita mix.
Stir in the salsa and sprinkle the cheese over.
Mix together until the cheese has melted.
Allow to cool to the touch, and then fill each segment of the chicken breast with about 1 teaspoon of the mixture.
Bake in the centre of the oven for 18-22 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear.
Enjoy!

Try cooking it in the fajita sauce and pairing it with a fresh garden salad 😋

Me and my girlfriend cooked the chicken for the directed time and temperature and it was still raw inside. I would cook it at 400 degrees and just keep my eye on it. Other than that, it tasted great, though my girlfriend said it could use some garlic.

After reading a few comments I seasoned the chicken with s/p, garlic powder, fajita seasoning first. I put a little sale on the bottom of the pan as well otherwise followed exactly was so good!
