Ingredients:
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast h, alves
1 (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 1/2 cup coarsely shredded monterey jack che, ese with
1 jalapeno peppers ( 8 ounces)
2 tsp dried oregano, crumbled
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tbsp chili powder
1/3 cup flour
2 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 guacamole and/or salsa
Instructions:
Place each chicken breast half between waxed paper and pound very
thin with a mallet or rolling pin to form a "cutlet". Be careful not
to pound holes in the meat. Place 1/3 cup cheese in center of each
"cutlet"; sprinkle with oregano. Fold sides over to seal cheese,
then roll up. Hold in place with wooden toothpick. Combine cornmeal
with chili powder on sheet of waxed paper; place flour on another.
Beat eggs slightly in a pie plate. Coat the stuffed rolls with flour;
dip in egg then cornmeal mixture to coat well. Chill at least an
hour. (This much of the preparation can be done ahead). Preheat oven
to 350 F. In a large skillet, heat oil until very hot. Quickly brown
the stuffed chicken rolls, turning often, until golden. Lift out with
a slotted spoon; drain well. Place in a shallow baking pan. Bake 20
minutes or until juices run clear when pierced with a small knife.
Serve with guacamole and/or salsa.
Makes 4 servings.

Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
