And in the third, the fresh bread crumbs. Dredge each stuffed chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess. Then dip it into the beaten eggs, ensuring it's fully coated. Finally, press the chicken into the bread crumbs, coating it completely. (15 minutes)

Once the butter is melted and the oil is shimmering, carefully place the breaded chicken breasts into the skillet. Sauté for approximately 8-10 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). (20 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Rest and Serve: Remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and place them on a wire rack to rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish. Serve immediately and enjoy! (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the skillet while sautéing the chicken.
Serve with a side of roasted asparagus or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
To ensure even cooking, use chicken breasts that are of similar size and thickness.
You can substitute the Dungeness crabmeat with other types of crabmeat, such as lump crab or claw meat.
