CHICKEN OSCAR
This is a very simple, yet elegant entree which is especially nice for a romantic meal. It's best if you can find fresh dungeness crab, but even canned crab will work. This is a popular dish served in restaurants on the West coast.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts. For this recipe, you'll want to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size. This will help them cook evenly.
- Make sure the crab filling is well-seasoned. The crab filling is the star of this dish, so make sure it's packed with flavor. Use a combination of Old Bay seasoning, salt, pepper, and paprika to taste.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 10-12 minutes per side.
- Make sure the hollandaise sauce is smooth and creamy. Hollandaise sauce can be tricky to make, but it's worth the effort. Make sure you use fresh egg yolks and butter, and whisk the sauce constantly over low heat.
Conclusion:
Crab stuffed chicken with hollandaise sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that's perfect for a special occasion. It's also surprisingly easy to make, so don't be afraid to give it a try. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
