👩‍🍳 How to Make Broccoli Cheddar Chicken Rollups

1. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.

2. Prepare Chicken

Place chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper. Pound them gently with a meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick.

3. Season Chicken

Season both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

4. Add Filling

Evenly spread steamed broccoli and shredded cheddar over each flattened chicken breast.

5. Roll & Secure

Carefully roll up each chicken breast, starting at the narrow end. Secure with toothpicks or kitchen twine to keep them closed.

6. Sear (Optional)

Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Brown the rollups on all sides for 2-3 minutes each for extra flavor.

7. Bake

Place the rollups seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).

8. Serve

Remove toothpicks or twine before serving. Pair with your favorite sides and enjoy!

💡 Tips & Variations
