  1. This is such a quick and easy dinner to put together. I didn't have whole chiles so I used chopped green chilis which made them pretty tough to roll up and then dredge in the flour. The flavor was out of this world though so I will be making these again using the whole chilis as stated in the recipe. This recipe is also really easy to reduce or multiply for a crowd!
     
  2. Oh yum,oh yum,oh yum!!! What an incredibly simple and wonderfully tasty recipe. I also used jarred jalapenos,diced and mixed in to the cream cheese (extra light philadelphia!!). This was so great,we loved the cool creaminess of the cheese married with the fiery heat of the jalapeno-DELICIOUS!! A real winner-thanks for posting!!
     
  3. This recipe made it into our Book #242923! 01/18/09 - This recipe is a wonderful and unique spin on jalapeno poppers! I didn't have whole chilis but did have a jar of diced jalapenos and it worked wonderfully as I could control the heat in the kivas to each family members liking. The cream cheese marries to the the chicken and chilis very well, providing a great balance of flavors. This is also very simple to make, with few ingredients that most cooks have on hand. The only change we would make would be to add more garlic. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. :)
     
  4. Had to go to the US and 6 different stores before finding whole chilies but it was worth it! Loved the spicy creamy flavour!
     
  5. This was delicious! It was just like cream cheese poppers but with chicken, too. I only had diced green chiles so I used those. I mixed them right up with the cream cheese and put a big blob of that in each chicken breast. I sprayed the little bundles with olive oil before I put them in the oven and they browned up very nicely and stayed moist. For such a simple recipe, this packs alot of flavor. It was sooo good! This will definitely be a regular around here. Thanks for posting this one! Made for PRMR game.

I have two wonderful kids,6 and 12, my youngest loves to help in the kitchen. His specialties are homemade noodles and macaroni salad. My daughter loves all things macaroni and cheese! <br> In the summers, we spend a lot of time at the lake and on our four-wheelers. The littlest has started T-ball this year, and we are getting a big kick out of watching those little guys play. DD is into basketball and is my biggest helper. <br>I am not a baker. However; I have found many delicious recipes on this site that are challenging my baking abilities. My kids are encouraging me to keep polishing up my baking skills! <br>I love to collect cookbooks! Finding this site was a stroke of luck. Now, I can keep all my favorite recipes in one place, and put the less used books away to make room for new ones! <br><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/i-connected-125.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket></a> <br><img src=http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii31/bleupantry/RecipeZaar%20and%20other%20Food/Top%20Favs%20of%202008%20GAME/ParticipationBanner.jpg> <br><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/potluckpbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <br><img src=http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <br> <br><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket> <br><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg> <br><a href=http://www.flickr.com/photos/26630178@N05/3510953178/ title=banner3 by *sparkly*, on Flickr><img src=http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3387/3510953178_b35b3086a8.jpg width=500 height=250 alt=banner3 /></a>
