God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.

Meats, Dairy California Chicken 4 Servings

INGREDIENTS

1/2 c Grated Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 c Grated Cheddar cheese
2 tb Unsalted butter; softened
2 tb Chopped parsley
1/4 ts Dried tarragon OR
2 ts Chopped fresh tarragon
Freshly ground pepper
Salt
4 Chicken breast halves; boneless and skinless (4 to 5 ounces each)
8 Sheets phyllo dough pastry*
4 tb Melted unsalted butter

INSTRUCTIONS

This recipe was the Grand Prize Winner in the 1997 Real California Cheese
Recipe Contest. Place the cheeses, softened butter, parsley, tarragon, 1/2
tsp pepper and 1/4 tsp salt in a bowl. Beat and mash the ingredients
together until they form a stiff paste... your fingers or a big wooden
spoon are the best tools for this job. Divide the mixture into 4
finger-shaped logs, each about 3-inches long. Set aside. Flatten each
chicken breast by placing it between 2 sheets of plastic wrap or waxed
paper, and pounding with a mallet or rolling pin until roughly 1/4" thick
and 5 or 6" across. Season the chicken lightly with salt and pepper. Place
a cheese log in the center of each breast, then roll and fold the chicken
around the cheese to enclose it completely. Preheat the oven to 350
degrees. Place a sheet of phyllo dough on your work surface. Top with a
second sheet, and brush lightly with melted butter. Set a chicken in the
center of one of the narrower ends, then roll it up in the phyllo, tucking
the ends of the dough under to enclose the chicken, and make a neat
package. Form the remaining packages the same way. Place them, folds down
in a 13x9-inch baking dish, and brush with remaining melted butter. Bake
about 40 minutes, or until sizzling and well browned. Makes 4 servings.

Jolly wwgq25d. Lynn's notes: Made this 10-20-97; easy dish to make and
tasted just great. Use your hands to mix the cheese and butter--it works
better that way.
