1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup Miceli's Parmesan Cheese

Preheat oven to 350o F. Cut slits lengthwise in each chicken breast. Pat chicken dry. Combine Miceli's Traditional Ricotta, garlic powder, chopped chives and salt in small bowl. Stuff cheese mixture into slits and press chicken together so cheese is sealed in tight. Dip chicken in egg, allowing excess to drip into bowl. Roll in breadcrumb mixer shaking off excess.
