Parmesan Crusted Chicken with Cream Sauce

This is super easy and so good. Ben LOVED it!

6 Ritz Crackers, finely crushed (I actually used one of the packages that comes inside a box)
2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese (I used more since I used more crackers)
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (I cut it to make them flat)
2/3 cup Chive and Onion Cream Cheese Spread (this is actually a small container)
1/2 cup chicken broth

Mix cracker crumbs and Parmesan cheese in bowl. Rinse chicken with cold water, shake off excess water. Dip chicken in some melted butter, egg white, or plain yogurt (I actually used mayo-works great) and then in cracker mixture turning to coat. Place in greased baking dish and bake at 350 for about 35-45 minutes or until chicken is done. For the sauce pour 1/4 (or if your doubling 1/2) cup chicken broth and cream cheese to skillet. Cook, stirring constantly. Simmer 3 minutes or until sauce thickens. Note: this happens fast and if you let it go it gets thick and clumpy so as soon as it's all melted and slightly thick it's good to go. Serve sauce over chicken. Also very tasty served with rice.
