Uncover for 5 minutes to brown if needed. Serve with hot capellini noodles.

This was very good, and very easy. I may try to add another layer of flavor to the chicken rolls next time, but honestly, it was pretty good just as written. I should also mention that my daughter and I both made the comment that we could, would, and probably WILL make a meal out of just the sauce/pasta combo! It's Delicious! Thanks for posting!

This is a great recipe! I do recommend to cook an extra 15-20 minutes. I cooked for 35 min. and the cheese and asparagus wasnt fully melted or done. I did sear my chicken before baking to give it more flavor. I also had to add two packets of hollandaise since my packets were only .9 oz. Which is fine for me bc the more sauce the better. I added half a large lemon and it was the perfect amount and garnished the rest of the side if we wanted to squeeze more over. I also sprinkles a little sweet paprika over top before baking for some extra color and spice. I loved all the extra sauce over the cappellini, it was a great pair! Oh yeah, and if anyone cant find cappellini, you can just use angel hair pasta, its basically the same thing. Overall this is a great recipe! My fiance gave it 10 stars! I sure will be making this again! Thanks!
