Cajun Seasoned Stuffed Chicken Breast

I got this recipe off a blog a long time ago and modified it a little. I really, really loved it and wish I could remember who I can give credit to for this great idea! I replace the breadcrumbs with parmesan cheese to keep the starch content down. Great way to change up the same ol’ chicken breast!
