For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of Gruyere and Parmesan cheese. Fresh crabmeat elevates this dish to a truly gourmet experience. If using canned, be sure to drain it very well. A dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio, pairs beautifully with this dish. To prevent the chicken from drying out, you can brine the chicken breasts for 30 minutes before stuffing.

Feb 13, 2025Easy to follow and delicious. I substituted mozzarella for Swiss cheese because that's what I had on hand, and it worked perfectly.

Sep 3, 2024I was a little hesitant about the saltine crackers, but they added a great texture to the filling. Will definitely make this again!

May 26, 2024I found that 30 minutes was too long for my oven, the chicken was a little dry. Next time, I'll check it after 25 minutes.
