Mix cream cheese product, onions, 2 Tbsp. basil and 1/2 cup shredded cheese until blended; shape into 8 logs. Place 1 log on one end of each chicken breast; press lightly into chicken. Roll up tightly, tucking in both ends of breast around filling to completely enclose filling.

Bake 30 min. or until chicken is done (170ºF). Top with remaining shredded cheese; bake 3 to 5 min. or until melted. Sprinkle with remaining basil.

How to Pound Chicken Breasts

Place 2 chicken breasts in large freezer-weight resealable plastic bag. Pound chicken with side of heavy can, rolling pin or meat mallet until 1/4-inch thick. Remove chicken from bag; set aside. Repeat with remaining chicken breasts.

Serving Suggestion

Serve with hot cooked pasta and a mixed green salad tossed with your favourite Kraft Dressing, such as Zesty Italian.

Make Ahead

Recipe can be assembled ahead of time. Refrigerate up to 2 hours before baking as directed, increasing the initial bake time if necessary until chicken is done.
