(WOOD) Cream Cheese Pesto Stuffed Chicken Breasts

Ingredients
-
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (1 1/4 lbs total)
-
1 egg white
-
1/2 cup plain dry breadcrumbs
-
2 TB extra-virgin olive oil
-
2 oz reduced fat cream creese (Neufchatel)
-
2 TB fresh basil pesto
 
-
Freshly ground black pepper
-
sea salt

Instructions
Combine cream cheese, pesto and black pepper to taste in a small bowl.
Cut a horizontal slit along the thin, long edge of a chicken breast half, nearly through to the opposite side. Open up each breast and place one-fourth of the filling in the center. Close the breast over the filling, pressing the edges firmly together to seal. Repeat with the remainig chicken breasts and filling.
Season outside of chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Lightly beat egg white with a fork in a medium bowl. Place breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Hold each chicken breast half together and dip in the egg white, then dredge in the breadcrumbs.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts; cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Place the chicken in a baking dish. Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center or until an instant-read thermometer registers 170 degrees, about 20 minutes.
