Made this a few times husband loves it and the left overs I make a chicken salad out of it it's really good..

We found the combination of the stuffing mix with the pineapple to be a bit odd. Also, rolling the chicken was a lot of work. I won't be making this again.

This was a nice change for stuffed chicken. I did this on the grill instead of in the oven (I LOVE grillin') & it came out very nice. I didn't use toothpicks, instead wrapped with oven string. Worked out very well. I didn't have enough leftover pineapple syrup to make a nice glaze so next time I will double, thicken a bit, and use as a nice syrup at the end. Thanks for the recipe!

I'd give this 41/2 stars, but my husband would give it 5. I thought it was just a tad too sweet, but he liked it that way. We'll make it again though-it was pretty easy to do, and cooked in 30 min as promised. Impressive looking to slice into too. I added a slice of deli ham on top of the chicken before putting the stuffing on, which we thought worked well. Thanks for this new and creative way to make chicken!

What a great, refreshing chicken dinner, & with great presentation, too! Rolled breasts like this make guests think you've gone to a lot of work, when, in fact, putting it all together is fairly simple! One thing I did change ~ I doubled the sauce ingredients then set aside half of it in a serving bowl so that guests could spoon on additional amounts if desired! I served it with brown rice & a peas/carrots side, & the pineapple sauce went well over everything! Thanks much for this great recipe!
