You'll love the combination of crispy breadcrumbs and gooey cheese in this stuffed chicken dish. It's stuffed with diced asparagus and shredded cheese to make a boring chicken breast a hit.

Ingredients

• 3/4 c. shredded Mozzarella and Provolone cheese or Swiss cheese
• 4 asparagus spears, woody ends broken off and discarded, blanched, diced

Steps
