Make a lengthwise cut on one side of each breast to form a pocket. Place pear and Brie cheese slices into each breast pocket, dividing evenly among breasts. Season with salt and pepper and lightly dredge in flour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place oil in medium-size ovenproof skillet and heat until hot. Add stuffed breasts to hot skillet and sear on both sides until browned.
Place skillet with breasts in oven and continue cooking about 10 minutes or until temperature on meat thermometer reaches 160 degrees F and juices run clear when pierced with a knife.
Remove chicken from skillet to platter. Keep warm. Add shallots to same skillet and saute until tender.
Add apricot brandy and chicken broth, stirring to loosen any bits in bottom of skillet. Cook over medium-low heat until reduced by half. Add apricot preserves and season with salt and pepper if necessary.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
