Imagine the rich creamy flavor of goat cheese combined with the a crunchy sweet and salty crust... Is your mouth watering yet? As you will probably learn form how often I cook with it, I love goat cheese. This is one of my favorite dinners and, if you like goat cheese, I think you will enjoy it too.

Honey Goat Cheese Chicken



Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts
6-8 oz goat cheese
1 sleeve ritz crackers
2 tbsp butter, melted
4 tbsp honey




Directions:
Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease 2 qt baking dish with cooking spray. Trim chicken breasts. Then, using a sharp knife, make slits in the breasts. Stuff each breast with 1/4 the cheese and press seam of chicken to seal.



Place chicken in dish and coat with crushed ritz crackers. Spray tops of chicken with cooking spray. Cook for 10 minutes. While chicken has started to bake, stir together honey and butter. After the 10 minutes, drizzle honey butter over chicken. Return to oven for another 25 minutes, or until crumbs have browned and temperature reads 165° F.
