Cheesy Chicken Roll Ups - Family Favorite

If you haven't noticed....I love to cook, so give me a challenge in the kitchen and I will take it on.    Everyone now knows if you have a baby, have surgery, hurt yourself or just need someone to cook you dinner I am game!!!!  This is one of my goto's when making dinner for a whole family because  you can make it ahead of time, it's fairly easy, and it tastes AMAZING!!  (adapted from The Do Ahead Cookbook)

Cheesy Chicken Roll Ups -

6 chicken breasts (skinless and boneless)
1/2 C sharp Cheddar cheese
3oz plain cream cheese
2T butter softened
1 small can chopped green chilies
2T grated onion
2 C crushed Cheddar Cheese Crackers (i use cheeze it's)
1 stick butter melted
salt, pepper, garlic salt, Tony's

Pre-heat your oven to 400.

Place the chicken between 2 plastics sheets and pound them out till 1/4 inch thick.
Mix cheddar cheese and next 4 ingredients in a bowl till well combined.
Crush the crackers and place in a bowl, add seasonings and mix well.

Take the thin chicken breasts one at a time and put a small amount of the cream cheese mixture down the middle, roll them up and secure with 2-3 toothpicks.  Roll all of your chicken first.
Then one at a time, dip the chicken in the melted butter, then the crushed cracker mixture till well coated.  Place seam side down in a baking dish.
Once you have all your chicken in the pan, if you have any left over cracker mix you can add to the baking pan then pour the rest of the melted butter on top (these will be the best "picking" pieces"!)

****at this point you can cover and refrigerate up to 24 hours***

Bake at 400 for 25 minutes or till done,  MAKE SURE TO TAKE OUT THE TOOTHPICKS BEFORE EATING!

Enjoy and Happy Cooking!!
