Very very yummy! And easy to make while quite impressive looking. I think it will fun to play with this recipe too - sneak in a little ham or proscuitto with the stuffing. Maybe a bit of pesto? And pounding those chicken breasts is great fun for working off steam! Thanks for posting. Reviewed for spring PAC 2007
