Servings: persons

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
4 slices bacon, cooked crisp and diced
4 (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1 cup seasoned dry bread crumbs or 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
1 egg
1 teaspoon water
1/4 cup vegetable oil or 1/4 cup olive oil

1
Combine the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, bacon, and jalapenos in a small bowl; mix well.
2
Cut a pocket horizontally through the thickest side of each chicken breast; fill with 1/4 of the cheese mixture. Secure with toothpicks. Tip: If breasts are thick, before slitting, slightly poud the thickest part of the breast side. It, also, makes for a larger pocket. Don't pound too thin.
3
Combine Panko bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and Parmesan; place on a piece of waxed paper.
4
Beat egg and water in a shallow bowl.
5
Dip stuffed chicken breast in egg mixture, then into Panko mixture, coating well.
6
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken breasts on both sides until golden; place on a foil lined shallow baking sheet.
7
Bake at 350 degrees in a preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
