    Place chicken breasts flat on cutting surface. Cut lengthwise slit in each chicken breast forming a pocket, keeping other 3 sides intact. Spoon one-third of the cauliflower mixture into each chicken breast. Place chicken breasts on ungreased cookie sheet. Brush chicken with lemon juice; sprinkle each with slightly less than 2 tablespoons bread crumbs.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Toss together a mixed green salad with fat-free raspberry vinaigrette for a tasty accompaniment.
  • tip 2
    If the chicken breasts are very thick, you can flatten them before filling. Place chicken breast between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Using the heel of your hand, apply firm pressure (pounding lightly if necessary) to chicken breasts, pressing until about 3/4 inch thick.
