This was nice and easy, though I thought it needed something but couldn't put my finger on what. I do think if I make this again I would use thighs not breasts and add the cheese after cooking instead of before. I cut a packet open after cooking and found the chicken to still be a bit pink, so turned off the oven & stuck the pan back in for 10 minutes - the chicken was perfectly done after the additional time. Also, I used jack cheese and homemade Recipe #66591. Thanks for the recipe!
