The recipe was easy and quick to prepare. I thought it was a pretty credible home-made chicken cordon bleau, but the rest of the family was only so-so on the taste. They ate it, but gave it an average rating of only 3.25 ("liked"). I halved the recipe, which seemed to work fine. I cut the chicken open after 10 minutes and it was not cooked in the middle. So, I cooked it for an additional minute to finish. This may have been a little too much, as the chicken was a little dry.

My first time baking chicken in the microwave. Delicious recipe! Only small problem - chicken wasn't cooked after 5 minutes - had to put it for 15 minutes. Maybe I should have used a cover? Thanks Kit - the chicken was moist and tasty and the outside was cripsy! Used recipe #91610 for the breadcrumbs!
