 Ingredients (serves 2)

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 onion, diced

Pinch of salt

70g of light cream cheese

50g of light cheddar cheese, grated

 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 teaspoon of chilli powder

1 teaspoon of cajun spice

 Method

Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees.

Fry the veggies in the olive oil with a pinch of salt and pepper, until softened. 

In a bowl, mix the cooked veggies with the cream cheese and cheddar until thoroughly combined.

Season the chicken with the spices, ensuring that they are evenly distributed.

Slice a horizontal pocket in each chicken fillet and fill with the veg and cheese mix.

Cook the chicken in the oven for 10 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. 

Serve with guacamole, salsa and sour cream. If a more hearty meal is desired, serve with Mexican spiced sweet potato chips or a side salad.
