If you like spicy this is definitely something for you. A delicious combination of spicy seasoned chicken and soft cheese sauce that really completes this dish. I serve this chicken with delicious Mexican rice, it goes perfectly with this spicy chicken.

What do you need?

2 chicken fillets
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1 teaspoon of onion powder
1 teaspoon of chili powder
1 teaspoon of chili flakes
2 teaspoons paprika powder
1 teaspoon of cumin
1 teaspoon of salt
¼ teaspoon of pepper

For the cheese sauce

2 tablespoons of butter
2 tablespoons of flour
250 ml of milk
50 g grated cheese
1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon paprika powder
Salt to taste

How to make it?

Add the herbs for the chicken in a bowl and mix together. Put 1 teaspoon of the herbs on each side of the chicken breast. Spread the seasoning by rubbing it over the chicken with your hands.

Heat a frying pan with a little oil and fry the chicken in it.

In the meantime you can make the cheese sauce.

Heat the butter in a small saucepan. When it has melted, add the flour. Stir through the butter with a whisk. Add the milk little by little.

Heat the white sauce and keep stirring. The sauce will now thicken, add the cheese and heat it for a while so it can melt.

Add the spices and season with salt.

Serve the chicken with cheese sauce and Mexican rice.

Bon Appetit!
