1. Place each breast half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Working from center to the edges, pound lightly with the flat side of a meat mallet to 1/4-inch thickness. Remove plastic wrap. Season with salt and pepper. 2. In a small bowl combine cream cheese,
blue cheese, and pecans. Place about 1/4 cup cheese mixture on each chicken breast. Fold chicken around filling to form a mound; repeat with remaining chicken. 3. Place chicken portions in a 2-quart square baking dish. In a small bowl combine margarine or
