    Recipe



    3/4 teaspoon chili powder
    4 teaspoon cumin
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon paprika
    1/2 cup unseasoned dry bread crumbs
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/4 cup chopped celery
    1/4 cup chopped onion
    1/2 cup corn (frozen will do)
    1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
    4 chicken breast halves, bone-in with skin

    Spray 12x8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In small bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, salt and paprika; mix well. Reserve 1 teaspoon seasoning mixture; set aside. To remaining seasoning mixture, add bread crumbs; mix well.
    In medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add celery and onion; cook 5 to 7 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Add corn, cheese, cilantro and bread crumb mixture; mix well.
    Loosen skin from each chicken breast to form pocket between skin and meat. Fill each pocket with about 1/2 cup corn mixture; secure opening with toothpick. Place skin side up in baking dish. Sprinkle chicken with reserved seasoning mixture.
