SHRIMP-STUFFED CHICKEN WITH CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Soften the cream cheese slightly. Mix green onions, shrimp, worcestershire and tabasco into the cream cheese. Divide into 4 equal portions.
• Gently loosen skin at one end of each breast piece, making sure to keep as much skin intact on the long sides as possible. Push one portion of shrimp mixture under skin of each breast piece. Carefully smooth the mixture down the length of the chicken as evenly as you can.
• Bake the chicken at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes, or until chicken tests done. I put mine on a rimmed cookie sheet, you could also use a 9X13 baking dish.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Saute the minced shallot until it just begins to brown.
• Add the wine to the shallots and simmer 5-10 minutes, until the wine has reduced to half.
• Add the tomato to the wine and heat through, then pour in the cream. Bring the wine mixture to a boil, then simmer until sauce reduces and thickens, another 5-10 minutes. Taste sauce and add salt and pepper to your liking.

STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Place 4 of the chicken breast halves, skinned side down, on a flat surface. Using a sharp knife, slice halfway through the meatiest portion of each breast half. Open up the breast, butterfly-style, and pound lightly with a mallet without breaking the tissues. On one half of the underside of the breast there is a detachable piece of meat known as the fillet. Remove and pound each of these lightly to flatten. Set aside.
• Cut the remaining chicken breast half into 1-inch cubes. Put the cubes in the container of a food processor or electric blender and start blending while adding the cream, Tabasco sauce, salt and pepper. Blend thoroughly. There should be about 1/2 cup. Arrange 2 of the shrimp close together in the center of each flattened chicken breast half. Spoon an equal portion of the blended mixture over the shrimp. Cover with flattened fillets. Fold the outer portions of each chicken breast half over the filling to enclose it compactly.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet large enough to hold the chicken in one layer. Add the onion and shallots and cook until wilted.
• Slice off the core end of the tomato and cut the tomato into 1/2-inch cubes.
• Add these to the skillet. Add the thyme, basil and wine. Arrange the stuffed breast halves over the mixture and bring to the boil. Cover closely and cook 10 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken breasts to a warm serving dish. Cook the sauce down over high heat about 2 minutes.
• Swirl in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and add the parsley. Stir. Pour the sauce over the chicken breasts and serve hot.
