PIMIENTO CHEESE CHICKEN



Pimiento Cheese Chicken image

Instead of using pimiento cheese as a sandwich filling, try using it as a filling for skillet-cooked chicken breasts. The traditional pimiento cheese recipes call for the classic Southern spread served on toast or in a simple sandwich. By stuffing the tangy pimento cheese spread into chicken breasts, you dress up a classic recipe without adding much work at all. The impressive-looking results of stuffed chicken breasts belie the ease of preparation. You can stuff them up to a day ahead, keep refrigerated, and then simply cook and serve. This is a super simple makeover to a weeknight chicken dinner.
