Ingredients:

Serving

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup red wine
1 tbsp lemon juice
3 tbsp water
1 tbsp fat-free ceasar italian dressing ( kraft)
3 tbsp fresh cilantro
2 garlic cloves
2 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp red pepper
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tbsp splenda sugar substitute
1/4 cup french onion dip
5 pickled jalapeno chilies, slices chopped (i used a sweet-hot variety)
2 tbsp reduced-fat italian cheese blend, shredded
1 tbsp parmesan cheese, shredded

Directions:

Cut a pocket in each chicken breast, almost like you were butterflying it, being careful not to cut all the way through.
In a blender, combine wine, lemon juice, water, dressing, cilantro, garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, red pepper, sugar, and splenda. Blend to chop garlic and mince herbs. Place marinade in a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken breasts. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2-8 hours. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking chicken.
In a small bowl, combine dip, peppers, and cheeses. Stuff each breast with 1/2 of the mixture. You may use toothpicks to secure the pocket closed, or you can leave it alone and some filling will ooze out and crisp up next to the chicken.
Preheat oven to 425*. Place chicken in a parchment- or foil-lined baking dish and bake for 12-18 minutes depending on the thickness of your chicken until the juices run clear when breast is pierced. Remove from oven and allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes (you can cover it with foil if you like to keep it from cooling too much). Slice and serve.
Note: I sometimes mark the chicken on a grill pan on the outsides before stuffing and baking it.
