Garlic Cheese Chicken Rollups

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 package of phyllo dough
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella cheese, cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Take each chicken breast and carefully cut a pocket into the thickest part.
  4. Stuff each pocket with the cheese mixture until full, then secure the opening with toothpicks to hold the filling in place.
  5. Lay out a sheet of phyllo dough and brush it with melted butter. Place another sheet of phyllo on top and brush it with more butter. Repeat until you have a stack of three sheets.
  6. Place a stuffed chicken breast at one end of the phyllo stack, then roll it up tightly, securing the ends by tucking them in.
  7. Repeat this process with the remaining chicken breasts and phyllo dough.
  8. Place the rollups seam-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and brush the tops with any remaining melted butter.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the phyllo is golden and crispy.
  10. Once removed from the oven, let the rollups rest for a few minutes. Remove toothpicks, slice, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
