Finally I shall give you two of my favorite boneless chicken breast recipes. Try them out soon.

Chicken breast with Crab Filling
I agree that this dish is full of calories so do not indulge in it like regularly. Once in 6 - 8 months if fine. For 5 people lay your hands on,

• Chicken breast halves, 5 (skinned)
• Crab meat, 6 oz.
• Cream cheese, 8 oz. (thawed)
• Savory herb with garlic soup mix, a pack
• Eggs, 2 (whipped)
• Bread crumbs, ¾ cup
• All-purpose flour, ¼ cup
• Olive oil, 2 tbsp.
• Butter, 1 tbsp.

Procedure
Blend the crab meat, cheese and soup mix and store. Now, cut open each breast horizontally so that it resembles a pouch and fill it up with the crab meat mixture and press the opening well to secure it. Now set to preheat the microwave to 350° F and in the meanwhile, coat the breasts with flour, then egg and then the dry bread crumbs. Heat the butter in a frying pan and fry the breasts for not more than ten minutes. Remember to heat on a medium flame and after 5 minutes of frying turn the breasts over only once. When the breasts take on a brownish tinge, gently place them on an oven proof dish, greased with olive oil, and let them bake for 25 - 30 minutes in the microwave. Serve it with rice and some veggies!

Cheddar Garlic Chicken
Last but not the least, you can make this dish in all of 60 minutes, for about 8 mouths and feed them a protein rich, carbohydrate rich diet! Don't make it too often though as it has a high cholesterol content of nearly 130 mg and very, very little fiber (0.3 g). So, you'll need to have,

• Chicken breast halves, 8 (pounded and thinned)
• Cheddar cheese, 1½ cup (sliced finely)
• Bread crumbs, ¾ cup
• Parmesan cheese, ½ cup (shredded)
• Butter, ½ cup
• Garlic cloves, 4 (minced)
• oregano, ¼ tsp. (dried)
• Parsley, ¼ tsp. (dried)
• Black pepper, ¼ tsp.
• Salt, to taste

Procedure
Put your oven to heat at 175° C beforehand. In another vessel blend together the parsley, oregano, pepper, salt and both the sorts of cheese along with the bread crumbs. Then take a cooking pan to melt butter in it, on a low flame. Throw in the garlic and sauté until it becomes slightly brown and remove from flame. Now coat each breast first into the butter-garlic mixture and then into the cheesed crumbs. Now grease an oven proof dish with some butter, place the breasts into this dish and mizzle some molten butter from top, on the breasts. Now place it into the microwave and bake for about 35 minutes. When the chicken loses its pinkish tinge and all the juices start to run clear, know that it's ready to tingle those taste buds. Mmmmm....
