Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish.

2. In a shallow bowl mix the cornflakes, chili powder, and fajita seasoning. In a separate bowl mix the red/yellow/orange peppers, mushrooms, and onion.

3. Dredge the chicken in the corn flakes mixture to evenly coat. Sprinkle one side of each breast with 2 tablespoons cheddar cheese and layer with 1/4 of the vegetable mixture. Top with equal amounts salsa. Carefully roll the breast halves over the filling. Seal seams with toothpicks then dredge again in the corn flake mixture.

4. Arrange the rolled chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Bake 30 minutes in the preheated oven. Top with remaining cheese and continue baking 10 minutes or until chicken juices run clear and cheese is melted.
