Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts; 1 cup lump crabmeat, drained and picked over for shells; 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened; 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice; 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning; Salt and pepper, to taste; 1 tablespoon olive oil; Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish by greasing it lightly with olive oil.
In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crabmeat, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix everything until well combined and set the mixture aside.
To prepare the chicken breasts, carefully butterfly each one by slicing horizontally through the thickest part of the breast, slicing almost all the way through, then open them like a book.
Season the inside of each chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Spoon the crab mixture evenly onto one side of each chicken breast, then fold the other side over the top to enclose the filling.
Carefully place the stuffed chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, making sure they are not too crowded.
Drizzle the olive oil over the stuffed chicken breasts, then sprinkle a bit more Old Bay seasoning on top for added flavor.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.
Remove the foil and broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to get a nice golden crust on top of the chicken.
Once done, garnish the Crab Stuffed Chicken with freshly chopped parsley, and serve hot with your favorite side dishes.
