Yield:

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter

2 yellow onions, sliced

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

4 Borden® Gouda Cheese Slices, or more as needed

1 (4.75 ounce) package seasoned coating mix for chicken

Directions

Step 1

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and saute until golden brown, stirring frequently. Continue cooking over medium-low heat until onions turn deeper brown, 35 to 45 minutes. If they start to burn, reduce heat. When completely caramelized, remove skillet from heat.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 3

Cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast. Evenly stuff pockets with 1 or 2 slices of Gouda cheese (depending on size of breast) and 1 tablespoon caramelized onions.

Step 4

Place seasoned coating mix in a shallow dish. Evenly dip each chicken breast in coating mix and place on prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake in preheated oven until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
