• Place chicken, top sides down, on cutting board. Top each with 2 Tbsp. cheese and 1 Tbsp. salsa; roll up, starting at one short end of each.

Steps:

• Put chicken in the bag with the remaining seasoning; shake to coat.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Turn seasoned chicken out into the skillet, add red onion, and saute in the hot oil until the chicken is browned, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Pound chicken breasts until uniformly 1/4" thick. I like to put the breasts in a zipper bag and pound them with my rolling pin!
• Spread half the salsa over each breast, then top with grated cheddar.
• Carefully roll up each breast with the salsa and cheddar inside, starting at a narrow edge.
• Coat each breast in bread crumbs. Place on a baking sheet (foil-lined, if you like) with the seam down.
• Bake for about 30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
• Optional: Top each breast with a little extra cheese and bake for a further 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts out flat.
• Place a slice of Provolone cheese and a green chili in the center of the breast.
• Roll up the breast and insert toothpicks through them to hold them shut.
• Dip in egg and roll in the breadcrumbs.
• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Bake on 350 degrees for approximately 20-25 minute.

Steps:

• Preparation: -Place the chicken breasts into a medium-size bowl, and add in all of the ingredients beginning with the olive oil, up to and including the black pepper, and toss to season the meat well; marinate the chicken for at least 20 minutes, or even overnight, if preparing ahead. -Once chicken in marinated, preheat your oven to 350°, and line a baking sheet with foil and top with a wire rack. -Preheat your grill pan over medium-high heat, and drizzle in about 1-2 tablespoons of oil; once hot, add in the chicken breasts (work in a couple of batches, if necessary) and grill them for about 3 minutes per side, or just until golden on the outside (the chicken will not be cooked through at this point, which is fine.) -Once the chicken is cool enough to handle, make a pocket in the thickest part of the breast, taking care not to cut all the way through, but just creating a large enough of pocket to stuff with filling; add a generous ¼ cup of the cheese, then a couple of tablespoons each of the black beans and corn, and then a few slices of the roasted red peppers. -Use a couple of toothpicks to secure the opening, and place the stuffed breasts onto the wire rack, and place into the oven to bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melty. -Top each stuffed chicken breast with some of the Pico de Gallo, plus a few cilantro leaves, if desired, and a slice/wedge of lime, for garnish.
