123 Hit Wonders 2008 ~ I really enjoyed this but DH thought it was a bit too pungent. As I can't get Gulden's mustard here, I used a wholegrain mustard, which I think I would cut back on a bit next time. I quartered the recipe as it was only the two of us. When I selected this recipe I had already taken chicken breasts out of the freezer so I browned them in my cast iron pan and piled the remaining ingredients on top and put under the grill. This cut down the total cooking time to about 15-20 minutes. Thanks Engrossed!

I found this a very tasty way of cooking chicken breasts which can be too dry sometimes; I notice Sydney Mike cut back on a few ingredients - funnily enough, so did I, but not the same ones! I cut back on the mayonnaise from 1 cup to 1/2 cup - we are watching our fat intake!! And, I also cut back on the cheese from 4 cups to 2 cups - I don't think it changed the "style" of the recipe very much, but enhanced it in line with our personal tastes.I loved the combination of flavours - it worked VERY well. I cooked this for friends who came to dinnerthis lunchtime - sadly, there are no photos which I LOVE to take of ALL my reviewed recipes, as my batteries were flat! Thanks for this Engrossed - I will be making it again!

Got to admit ~ I haven't cooked much with some of the ingredients, so this was a real challange in that department! I ended up cutting back on three of them, only using 1/3 cup horseradish, slightly less than 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, & 6 oz bacon! I was happy with the result, though, & my other half thought it was a GREAT change from the usual breasts that I bake, so..... And, since I'm keeping this recipe on hand, I MIGHT even follow it to a T the next time around! Thanks for posting it for us!
