Taco Chicken Roll-ups

These were different from what we usually have, and they were fairly easy, and they tasted good. So, this recipe is a keeper. I made a few adjustments to the original recipe.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup finely crushed cheese flavored crackers
  • 1/2 envelope taco seasoning (we made our own using chili powder, salt, pepper, garlic, onion)
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 2 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, cut into six 2-inch x 1/2-inch sticks
  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
  • 1 egg, beat

Directions:

1. In a shallow dish, combine the cracker crumbs and taco seasoning; set aside.
2. Place egg in other shallow dish; set aside.
3. Flatten chicken between two sheets of waxed paper to 1/4-in. thickness.
4. Place a cheese stick and about 1 tablespoon of chilies on each piece of chicken. Tuck ends of chicken in and roll up.
5. Dip chicken in egg then coat chicken with crumb mixture.
6.
Secure with a toothpick. Place in a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
7. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Remove toothpicks.
