Green Chile Fiesta Chicken Bake


Gluten free and low carb! With only 6 ingredients this Green Chile Fiesta Chicken Bake makes dinner quick on even the busiest evening. And it’s only 7 weight watchers points per serving (makes 8 servings).

Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2 lbs)
1 can corn, drained
1 can chopped green chiles (I prefer Old El Paso)
8 oz Philadelphia light cream cheese, softened
8 oz monterey jack cheese
1/2 cup sour cream (light) 
4 green onions, chopped
Cilantro for garnish (optional)

Preheat oven to 375˚F.
Lay the chicken breasts in a 9x13 casserole dish. Season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.

Mix the cream cheese, corn, green chiles, sour cream, and 1 1/2 cup monterey jack cheese together until combined.  Spread the cream cheese mixture over the top of the chicken and sprinkle remaining cheese evenly over the top.

Bake for 35-45 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (165˚F internal temp)

Garnish with cilantro and serve with your favorite side.  Or just eat it plain like I did for lunch the last three days. 😊
