The best of both worlds for a double delight:
(makes 8)
Olive oil cooking spray
8 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
8 oz. cream cheese with chives and onions*
8 slices Sharp* Cheddar slices, cut into 1/2" strips
8 slices black forest ham*
1 cup 2%* milk
1&1/2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs (Italian Panko, if you can find it)
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
1 T. minced garlic
3/4 cup butter
2 T. lemon juice
1 T. chopped fresh parsley*
1/2 t. garlic salt
1/2 t. paprika
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly coat large shallow baking dish with cooking spray. Butterfly each breast by slicing in half horizontally through the center, cutting almost through. Open, and flatten. Spread each with cream cheese. Evenly distribute cheddar cheese strips and rolled ham slices in the center. Close again, as if placing between the pages of a book. Set aside. Pour milk into a shallow bowl. In a separate bowl, combine breadcrumbs, parsley, and Romano cheese. Carefully dip each breast first in the milk, then in breadcrumb mixture, turning to coat. Press lightly on both sides to adhere. Place breasts side by side in a single layer in baking dish; tucking under edges to seal. Melt butter in a small saucepan over med. heat. Stir in lemon juice and garlic; drizzle evenly over chicken. Season with garlic salt and paprika. Bake 30 mins. or until no longer pink in the center, and juices run clear. Let rest before serving. YUMOLA!!!
I LOVE this one: "Strive to live your life so it brings a smile to God's face".
Happy Friday, and have FUN today.
