How to Make Chicken Breast With Chili Cheese
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each) in an 8x12 inch Pyrex dish.
- Season chicken breasts generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices (paprika, garlic powder, onion powder recommended).
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
- While chicken is baking, prepare the cheese sauce: In a bowl, combine 1 cup shredded Gouda cheese, 2 tablespoons finely chopped pickled jalapeños, and 2 tablespoons milk or cream. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Remove the foil from the baking dish. Spread the cheese mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Top with 1/4 cup crumbled cooked bacon and 2 tablespoons chopped green onions.
- Return to the oven, uncovered, and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Slice 1 ripe avocado and arrange slices on top of the chicken.
- Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream on the side (optional).
- Enjoy with your favorite sides such as rice, beans, a tossed salad, or warm tortillas.
