  1. I have tended to stay away from cooking this dish, because I thought it would be difficult and time consuming. Boy was I wrong. This recipe was easy and extrememly good. My DH was really impressed. The only thing I did different was use crushed rice krispies instead of crackers, and that was only because I was out of crackers.
     
  2. This was wonderful...better than any restaurant cordon blue that I have EVER had...thanks for the great recipe! It's worth the little bit of effort involved!
     
  3. This was just a little twist on something I've made for a long time. The cream cheese is a very nice addition and cooking on the stovetop was very easy as well. I've always baked it in the oven and this was quicker. Thank you.
     
  4. I made this several weeks ago and how could I forget!? These were great and the cream cheese does make a difference! My kids devoured this chicken, and they don't like chicken! :-) I doubled the recipe and froze the extra four. Just defrosted and heated up in the microwave. Yummy!
     
  5. the bestthank you I was looking for a recipe like this,since my boyfriend kept asking me to make it for him ..glad I found this one easy and fast ....there is a trick to the tooth picks..first time had to be careful to find them before eating...so second time I made used metal tooth picks and that worked better..
