Ingredients

• 1 egg, beaten
• salt to taste
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• ground black pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 6 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 2 cups cooked wild rice
• 1 cup crushed corn flakes cereal
• 0.25 cup chopped green onions
• 0.5 cup roasted green chili, chopped

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Mix together rice, chili, cheese, onion, and cumin.

Step 2

Rinse chicken thoroughly, and pat dry. Cut a slit in each breast to create a pouch that is open on one side only. Stuff each chicken breast with rice filling.

Step 3

Coat each stuffed breast with beaten egg, then coat in potato flakes and place in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4

Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 40 minutes, or until juices run clear. If the breasts dry out too quickly, cover loosely with a piece of foil.
