- 1/3 cups - light garlic-and-herbs spreadable cheese (such as Boursin light)
- 1/4 cups - slivered almonds toasted, coarsely chopped and divided
- 3 tablespoons - chopped fresh parsley divided
- 4 - skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (6 oz. each)

Directions:
1. Combine spreadable cheese, 3 tablespoons of the almonds, and 2 tablespoons of the chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl; set aside.
