2 pounds ground chicken
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 ounces freshly chopped sage
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black cracked pepper
6 (8-ounce) chicken breasts, with a slit cut on the thick side for stuffing
Olive Oil, for sauteing

Cream de Brie Sauce:
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 teaspoon chopped shallots
4 cups heavy cream
4 ounces Brie, rind removed
4 ounces Dijon mustard

Directions
- Place chicken in large mixing bowl, add red pepper, sage, garlic, honey, brown sugar, and maple syrup, and mix thoroughly. Add bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Place mixture in refrigerator for 15 minutes to set.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place stuffing in pastry bag with a wide tip. Pipe about 4-ounces of stuffing into the pocket of each chicken breast. In a large saute pan, add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan lightly, and heat. Dust the chicken with flour, and saute to brown all sides, place in oven to finish cooking for 8 to 10 minutes.
