Serves:: 6

ingredients

3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
¹⁄₈ teaspoon garlic powder (I prefer adding very finely minced fresh garlic cloves)
6 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, about 1 1/2 pounds
2 cups corn flakes cereal, crushed (about 1 cup when crushed)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
¹⁄₂ teaspoon paprika
¹⁄₄ cup low-fat buttermilk or 1/4 cup skim milk

directions

Mix butter, chives and garlic powder (or minced garlic); shape into 3x2" rectangle. Cover and freeze about 30 minutes or until firm.
Heat oven to 425°F Spray 9x9x2" square baking pan with cooking spray.
Flatten each chicken breast half to 1/4" thickness between plastic wrap or waxed paper.
Cut chives mixture crosswise into 6 pieces. Place 1 piece on center of each chicken breast half. Fold long sides of chicken over chives mixture; fold up ends and secure with toothpick.
Mix cereal, parsley and paprika. (I also like to add white pepper to this mixture)
Dip chicken into buttermilk, then coat lightly and evenly with cereal mixture. Place chicken, seam sides down, in prepared pan.
Bake, uncovered, about 35 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center.
Be careful when you cut into the chicken as the butter may squirt unceremoniously over yourself or other guests.

I was just getting set to post this exact recipe. It's a bit of work, but sooooo worth every effort. This is very tasty, and perfect to serve for that 'special' ocassion. I suggest using coloured toothpicks so that they are easier to find after baking.

<p>Live and work in the heart of the US - Ohio! I work as a Risk Management Consultant, and I do have to work to pay the bills (at least for now), but my passion is cooking.....and eating with as much variety as I can find. I am incredibly lucky in that my BF will eat anything I cook and will give me his honest opinion. What more can you ask from a guy? Well.....let's not go there...at least not online LOL. <br />We share our home with four rescued cats and two Beagle Dachshund mixes (beaners!). We'd rescue more if I could afford the vet bills. <br />Other passions include my vegetable and herb garden, and BF provides the needed grunt work (laughs).</p>
