Green Chili Cream Cheese Chicken Recipes

GREEN CHILI AND CHEESE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9 inch square baking dish (or similar size) with cooking spray.
• Make a deep cut into the side of each chicken breast half to form a pocket or 'purse'. Stuff 1/4 cup of cheese and about 1 tablespoon of the chilies onto each one. Close, and secure with a toothpick so that the cheese does not escape while in the oven. Place the stuffed chicken into the baking dish. Season with Fajita seasoning, and then sprinkle the remaining cheese and chilies over the top.
• Bake uncovered for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the chicken juices run clear, and cheese is melted and lightly browned.

CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Combine chicken, water, bell pepper, celery, onion, garlic, seasoned salt, and oregano in a pot. Bring to a boil; continue to boil until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from heat, shred chicken with 2 forks, and return to the pot. Add beans, salsa, and chile peppers, and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and Monterey Jack cheese. Do not allow to boil once cheeses are added; if boiling you can remove from the heat entirely. Stir until melted.

GREEN CHILE CREAM CHEESE SPREAD

Steps:

• Combine the ingredients in a bowl and use as you desire.
• This will keep in the fridge for a week or so, just stir it up before you use it again.

SLOW COOKER CREAM CHEESE CHICKEN CHILI

Steps:

• Place chicken at the bottom of a slow cooker; pour corn, black beans, and diced tomatoes on top. Top with ranch dressing mix, chili powder, cumin, and onion powder. Stir together. Place cream cheese on top.
• Cover and cook on Low until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 6 to 8 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Shred chicken with 2 forks; serve.
