This recipe is very good and relatively easy. The recipe didn't say what kind of green chilies to use and I think mine overpowered the cheese and the breading because it was a bit too hot, so I think something like jalapenos would have been better. I think next time I would use more mild chilies. I served it with a Spanish rice.

Chicken,chillies and cheese are just meant to be married together, and this recipe showcases this perfectly.<br/>We loved the flavour of the crisp crumb mixture against the moist tender chicken and then into the spicy gooey cheese..delicious.<br/>Served with a simple salad it made for a most enjoyable dinner...thumbs up for you Sweets x<br/>Made for PRMR.

I tried this recipe for dinner last night. It turned out excellent. I squirted some fresh lime juice on the chicken after it came out of the oven. I served it with steamed rice to which I added cut up fresh red bell pepper, green onions & mushrooms & steamed broccoli with dill. What an explosion of taste. Thanks for the recipe.
