Quantity Ingredient
1 pack Cream cheese; (8 oz.) softened
2 tablespoons Milk

Spread ⅛ of the cream cheese mixture on each chicken breast, fold over and secure with a toothpick. Mix bread crumbs and paprika. Coat chicken with melted butter, then crumbs. Place in a 9 x 13-inch dish; cook, covered with waxed paper in microwave oven on High for 15 minutes; rotate dish once. Variation: Leave skin on your chicken, do not pound.
