ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
- 2 slightly beaten eggs
- 1⁄2 cup breadcrumbs (or crushed corn flakes)

- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chunky salsa (store bought or homemade)

- Using a sharp knife, carefully cut a pocket in the side of each breat half. Stuff or spread each with about 1/4 cup of goat cheese and if you want, place 2 sticks of asparagus inside as well.

- Transfer skillet to oven when heated. Bake, uncovered for 15-18 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink.
- Serve with salsa or bruschetta on the side, or on top, and enjoy!

Don't make the same mistake as me and get skinny chicken breasts! That's the only thing I would change
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a small town girl currently living in Southern Manitoba. I love to cook and owe it all to my mother. She immigrated to Canada from Vietnam, and I just love her traditional dishes. My father is French Canadian, and my DH is Ukrainian/Spanish, so needless to say, I get to cook a lot of different culinary dishes. My favorites, however, are Vietnamese, Thai, Mexican, Italian and Greek.
