I added double the salad dressing inside and on the outside. Mozza in the stuffing as well. Was really good and easy.

It was a bit dry. Very good taste I would make a simple chicken sauce with it

Pretty good. A bit dry, so I would add a bit more liquid. I added garlic to give it a bit of flavour, next time I would add other spices to really spice it up. I also added cheese to the top, which was good.

Amazing recipe! I used the skinnier chicken breasts and it was much easier to pound them, plus I added some cheese in the stuffing mix too and it was great. The chicken was tender and yummy and everyone wants me to make it again!

Delicious... and fun to do to. Pounding the chicken was a great stress releiver after a long day at work ;). Next time I'm going to chop my spinach even smaller, except that I was suprised at how big one chicken roll was and it was not only easy to do but great flavor. Would not change a thing in this recipe.

excellent & easy meal. we doubled the recipe & there was still enough spinach & stove top so I added it all with more water & dressing & red pepper, cooked it up & had it as a side dish with sweet potato. Will definitley make it again for company.

Fantastic recipe! As other readers have suggested I marinade the chicken overnight. It is a very simple dish but it is something I have made for dinner parties and it is a great hit!

Very, very good! I love the method for stuffing and rolling chicken breasts. I do the same thing with pork chops.
