Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons minced onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill or 1/4 teaspoon dried dillweed
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/8 teaspoon (scant) lemon-pepper
4 ounces crabmeat
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
All purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten to blend
3 cups fresh breadcrumbs (about 3 ounces)
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine first 6 ingredients in medium bowl. Add crab and mix in thoroughly. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
  • Using small sharp knife, cut horizontally through center of each chicken breast, creating pocket. Fill each pocket with 1/4 of stuffing. Dip each chicken piece into flour, then eggs, then crumbs to coat, covering completely.
  • Melt butter with oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breast halves to skillet and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.

I'm not a huge fan of crab, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The chicken was so moist and flavorful, and the crab stuffing was surprisingly good. I'll definitely be making this again.
