Georgia's Chicken Rolls


6 Chicken breasts (3 oz each)
4 oz. low-fat cream cheese (Neufchatel Cheese)
1/4 c. Parmesan Cheese, grated (low-fat, made with 2% milk)
2 Artichoke Hearts in olive oil (drain well, and chopped)
1/2 small Jalapeno Pepper (chopped)
1/2 c. Bread Crumbs
1 Egg White

1. Pound chicken until thin enough to roll
2. Mix cheeses, peppers, artichokes, and peppers together
3. Spoon cheese mixture evenly into the center of each chicken breast, roll chicken, with cheese mixture inside.
4. Dip chicken roll into egg whites, and then into bread crumbs
5. Bake in 350 oven for about 1 hr.

As prepared above each chicken roll is about 275 Calories, 32 g. protein, 8 g. of carbs. and 8g. of fat. You can decrease the fat grams further by using fat-free cream cheese, and/or omitting the artichoke hearts, or try a type not marinated in oils. I have also used a prepared Artichoke and Jalapeno dip from Costco as the filling, it makes it quicker to prepare and the nutritional info is about the same.
