Crab-Stuffed Chicken

"This is a luscious change from plain chicken and it's nice for company," assures Pat Durrie of Omaha, Nebraska. "The combination of crab, chicken, spaghetti sauce and cheese is great."

4 ServingsPrep/Total Time: 30 min.

Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup lump crabmeat, drained
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried basil
2 cups meatless spaghetti sauce
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
Hot cooked pasta, optional

Directions

Flatten chicken to 1/4-in. thickness; top with crab. Roll up tightly
and secure with toothpicks. In a shallow bowl, combine the bread
crumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder and basil. Roll
chicken in crumb mixture; set remaining mixture aside.
Place chicken in a shallow 1-1/2-qt. microwave-safe dish coated with
cooking spray. Cover and microwave on high for 2-3 minutes. Turn the
chicken; sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. Cover and cook for
2-3 longer or until chicken juices run clear.
Top with spaghetti sauce. Cover and microwave on high for 2-3 minutes
or until heated through. Sprinkle with cheese; heat, uncovered, for
30-60 seconds or until the cheese is melted. Let stand for 5
minutes. Serve over pasta if desired. Yield: 4 servings.
