taste very good and easy to do - 07 Apr 2016
Easy for quick dinners!! Beautiful flavours. Have a wine with it. - 29 Sep 2013
I've made this several times, the first time following the directions exactly, but the bacon was undercooked and left the chicken very greasy. The next time I pre-cooked the bacon in the microwave about half way first, but again, the chicken was a bit greasy and the bacon wasn't doing anything to compliment the chicken. Now instead of bacon I wrap the chicken in prescutto and it's perfect! The flavors mix very well with the feta and spinach stuffing. It's now the first thing I cook for a guy when I want to impress him, and it works like a charm! - 30 Apr 2008 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
