  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Notes

Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for easier mixing and an even spread over the chicken. To add a bit of color and extra flavor, consider adding chopped sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers to the cheese mixture. Always use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
