1tbspwater

¾cupcornmeal

¼tspfresh ground black pepper

3tbspcooking oil

Preparation

In a small bowl, combine the goat cheese, sausage, cayenne, ¼ teaspoon of salt, and parsley.

With a sharp knife, make an incision along the side of each chicken breast and cut into the middle, making a pocket without cutting through the edges

Fill each breast with the goat-cheese mixture and pinch the cut-side of the breast together to seal in the stuffing.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg with water. Mix the cornmeal with the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and pepper.

Dip each chicken breast in the cornmeal mixture to coat lightly, then into the egg mixture, and then back in the cornmeal.

In a large frying pan, heat the oil over moderately high heat.

Add the chicken and cook for 5 minutes. Turn and continue cooking for about 5 minutes longer until golden brown and cooked through.

Serve warm, and enjoy!
