• Using a small sharp knife, cut in half horizontally through the center of each chicken breast half, creating a pocket. Fill each pocket with 1/4 of the crab stuffing. Then dip each chicken piece into flour, eggs and finally bread crumbs to coat. Cover completely.

• Mix in the cheese; I didn't have room in my 3 quart pan to add the cheese, so I layered cheese and the contents of the pan in the baking dish and mixed it up there.
• Put the contents of the pan into the baking dish. Cover and bake at 350 for 15 minutes.
• Melt the remaining 3 tbsp butter and stir it into the bread crumbs so that they are a little moist and stick together. Sprinkle over the baking dish and bake uncovered until bread crumbs are golden (about 10 minutes).
