Chicken Stuffed With Herb Cheese

1/2 (8-oz) package Neufchatel cheese, softened

1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley

1/2 tsp. lemon-pepper seasoning

1/4 tsp. dried whole basil

1/4 tsp. dried whole oregano

Dash of garlic powder

8 boneless skinned chicken (2 pounds)

1 egg beaten

2 Tbsp. water

1/2 cup fine, dry bread crumbs

Method:

1. Combine Neufchatel cheese, parsley, lemon-pepper seasoning, basil, oregano and garlic powder in a small bowl, stir well. Set mixture aside.

2. Trim excess fat from chicken. Place each piece of chicken between 2 sheets of waxed paper, flatten to 1/3-inch thickness, using a meat mallet or rolling pin.

3. Place equal portions of cheese mixture in center of each piece of chicken; roll up jellyroll fashion. Tuck in sides, secure with wooden picks.

4. Combine egg and water in a small bowl, stir well. Dip each roll in egg mixture, dredge in bread crumbs. Place rolls in a 12x8x2-inch baking dish. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. Remove wooden picks to serve.

I figured most of them are "staple" items we have..
