For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cream cheese mixture.

If you want to use other cheese, you can replace the cheddar cheese with Montery Jack cheese.

    Easy to follow and delicious. I used a mix of cheddar and mozzarella cheese, and it turned out great.

  • Lexie Pagac

    The stuffing is so flavorful, and the chicken stays incredibly moist. I added a sprinkle of garlic powder to the chicken before stuffing it, and it was perfect!
