Olive and Provolone Stuffed Chicken

This recipe is absolutely fantastic! It is so warm in flavour, and who can resist the deliciousness of gooey cheese? A great meal to impress your significant other with (as long as they like olives)! Could make for a romantic evening ;)

You will need:
1/4 cup of shredded provolone cheese, preferably aged
1/4 cup of sliced and chopped olives of your choice (I prefer Kalamata-  but it's up to you!)
Pepper to taste
2 chicken breasts
1 large egg white
1/2 cup of Panko breadcrumbs
Sprinkle of salt
Olive oil

Serves two.

Prep:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a baking sheet with PAM
2. Mix the provolone, olives and pepper in a small bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, set aside the egg white. Then, combine the salt and breadcrumbs in a separate dish.
4. Cut a slit along the half of the chicken breast, without cutting it completely in half. Open the breast, and fill the breast with half of the cheese/olive mixture, and then old the breast back up. Do the same to the other breast.
5. Gently and carefully, dip the chicken in the egg white and then sprinkle in bread crumbs.
6. In a skillet, cook the chicken until browned on one side (about 4 to 6 minutes). Then place on the baking sheet on the opposite side, and bake the chicken for 20  minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink.
7. Serve with basmati rice, and some green beens!
