-Exec. Chef Gerald Bonsey, CEC, York Harbor Inn, York Harbor

Cracker Stuffing:

2 oz. finely diced ONIONS
2 oz. finely diced CELERY
1 oz. CLARIFIED BUTTER
1 oz. DRY SHERRY
1/2 Tbsp. minced GARLIC
1/2 Tbsp. WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE
10 oz. crushed RITZ® CRACKERS

1 Tbsp. chopped PARSLEY
1 tsp. SALT
1 tsp. WHITE PEPPER
8 (6 oz. ea.) boneless, skinless CHICKEN BREASTS, lightly pounded
1 lb. LOBSTER MEAT, medium diced

To prepare cracker stuffing: Sauté onion and celery in clarified butter until limp. Combine with remaining stuffing ingredients. Stuff each chicken breast with 2 ounces of cracker stuffing and 2 ounces of lobster meat. Bake chicken in a 350° oven for approximately 18 minutes. Top with Boursin Cheese Sauce when serving.

Boursin Cheese Sauce

2 cups HEAVY CREAM
10 oz. BOURSIN CHEESE with GARLIC and HERB
Bring cream to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan Whisk in Boursin cheese and reduce heat to very low. Cook sauce very gently, scraping the bottom of the pan with a rubber spatula often, so that the cheese does not burn. Continue cooking until sauce is lightly thickened. Sauce may be held for a short time in a warm water bath.

Serves 8.
