1 ounce clarified butter

¹⁄₂ tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
10 ounces Ritz crackers, crushed
1 tablespoon scallion, sliced

directions

Sauté onion and celery in clarified butter until limp, then combine in a bowl with remaining stuffing ingredients.
Stuff pounded chicken breasts with 2 oz of stuffing and 2 oz of lobster meat.
Sauce:
Bring heavy cream to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan then whisk in Boursin Cheese and reduce heat to very low.
Cook sauce very gently, scraping the bottom of the pan with a rubber spatula often, so that the cheese does not burn.

Sauce may be held for a short time in warm water bath.
Bake chicken in a 350 degree oven for approximately 18 minutes and top with sauce upon serving.

This stuffing was way more than was needed! Unless I did something wrong. I wanted really more lobster and less breading....the sauce was way more than you needed as well, unless you were going to drown the entire plate with it. The next time, I would brown the chicken in a fry pan first, it was pretty white...and then the sauce was white...even with the gold green dust it was pretty but still white.
