2 slices provolone cheese, halved
1 Granny Smith apple - peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1 shallot, sliced
2 Tbs milk
1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
3 egg yolks
1/3 cup white sugar
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans
Methods/steps
1 Preheat oven to 375. Lightly oil a baking pan.

3 Place 1 half slice of the provolone inside of the pocket, followed by half of the apple slices. Then add a small amount of the shallot (to taste)
4 Top with the remaining provolone. Pull the pocket closed toeing with twine. Sprinkle with milk and coat with the bread crumbs. Place chicken onto the baking sheet.
5 Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes. The juice should run clear.
6 Using a double boiler, prepare your sauce while the chicken is baking. .
7 Lightly simmer the water, combining it with the egg yolks and sugar. Beat until the yolk pales and a froth forms. Slowly add the wine. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and add the pecans and vanilla.
8 Ladle some of the sauce onto a serving plate and place your chicken breast on top of it. Drizzle a bit of the sauce over top.
