Tips and Tricks:

No need to pound the chicken for this dish; just simply butterfly the chicken breasts and lay them in a baking dish. Easy!
Be careful when working with jalapeños. Use gloves or just be careful not to touch the seeds as I do. I hold the jalapeño on the flesh side and use a butter knife to pop out the seeds and insides.
If you like this dish spicy, leave more of the seeds in the jalapeños. If you remove the seeds; it’s not spicy at al!.
Always make sure the chicken (or any protein for that matter) is room temperature and patted dry of any moisture before cooking or baking.
