How to Make Mango Crab Stuffed Chicken Breasts

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. **Prepare the Mango Salsa:** Combine 1 ripe mango (diced), 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced (optional), 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Gently mix.
  3. **Prepare the Filling:** In a separate bowl, combine 1 pound lump crab meat, 1/4 cup of the mango salsa (reserve the rest for garnish), 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix gently.
  4. **Stuff the Chicken:** Butterfly 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 ounces each) by slicing them horizontally almost all the way through. Spread the crab mixture evenly over each chicken breast.
  5. **Roll and Bread:** Roll up each chicken breast tightly and secure with toothpicks. In a shallow dish, whisk 2 large eggs. In another shallow dish, combine 1 cup panko bread crumbs and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
  6. **Bread the Chicken:** Dip each chicken roll in the egg, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  7. **Bake:** Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a baking dish lightly coated with cooking spray. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  8. **Serve:** Remove toothpicks. Garnish with the remaining mango salsa and serve warm. Enjoy!
