Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)

1/2 cup buffalo hot sauce (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup chopped green onions (for garnish)

Olive oil (for drizzling)

Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Prepare the Cheese Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled blue cheese (if using), buffalo hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.

      Prep the Chicken: Place chicken breasts on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, carefully create a pocket in each chicken breast by slicing horizontally into the side without cutting all the way through.

        Stuff the Chicken: Generously fill each chicken pocket with the creamy cheese mixture, ensuring it's evenly distributed. Secure the opening with toothpicks if necessary.

          Season the Chicken: Drizzle a little olive oil over the stuffed chicken breasts and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides.

            Bake the Chicken: Place the stuffed chicken breasts in a greased baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).

              Make it Saucy: In the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the tops of the chicken with additional buffalo hot sauce for an extra kick.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, and then remove any toothpicks. Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh parsley before slicing and serving.
