  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

  3. Using a sharp knife, create a pocket in each chicken breast and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Stuff each pocket with the filling mixture (about 1/3 cup each) and ensure it is packed gently but firmly.
