Fabuous recipe with a wonderful combination of flavors! I swear you could put just about anything rolled up inside a chicken breast and it's bound to be good. The combination of sweet apple and sharp cheddar was definitely an indicator that this was going to be tasty so I had to give this a try and boy am I glad I did! However, I did make a couple of changes... After I pounded my chicken breasts down thin I used bread cubes vs. Italian bread crumbs for the stuffing. I combined the dried bread cubes with the apple and some curry powder, brown sugar and a little salt. I moistened the stuffing with some apple juice. I used sliced sharp cheddar cheese then place the stuffing over top and rolled it together securing with toothpicks. Half I did with the apple stuffing and cheese the other half I did with apple stuffing, cheese and of course - bacon! I dipped the chicken in egg and then plain bread crumbs to form a light coating. I then drizzled it with a little melted butter and baked at 375 for 35 - 40 mintues. For the sauce I used apple juice vs. water and a mild white wine. I added a little poultry seasoning for flavor and added a splash of cream. The result was a very moist and flavorful chicken bursting with a delicious apple stuffing and cheese filling! You could easily do without the sauce and it was hard to tell which we liked the ones with bacon or the ones without...either way this recipe is a keeper!

Spices are definitely necessary and I preferred to bake it which took about 40 minutes. Not sure if we'll make this again would probably change the stuffing some how though it gave it good flavor it was missing texture. A reviewer suggested walnuts but no nuts for us.

i tried it with spartan apples instead of granny smiths and it was awesome, also added some spinach and feta cheese on the side, definitly gonna have to make it again

It was alright. Chicken had no flavor so next time I'll fix that.

needed more flavor, as written was bland. experiment and add seasonings/herbs that you like and it will be great. For the apples, I used honeycrisps. I added mushrooms, fresh rosemary, more cracked black pepper, and a splash of heavy whipping cream to the saute pan and it blended with the apples quite nicely.

I've made this before, and my family enjoyed it. My 13 yr. old son just made it for us for a 8th grade homework assignment- he did it by himself, and it turned out just great!! We didn't have opened wine, so he just used chicken broth instead of wine and water for the sauce. He added chopped apples to the sauce, nice touch!

This was an extremely wonderful recipe! I will definitely be making this again and my hubby really enjoyed it...and that is a challange altogether. Since I am on a low sodium, low fat, low cholesterol diet, this recipe fits right in the menu! I give it 5 stars! thank you for sharing this with others!

Just wasn't for us. The gravy never came together and the stuffing really wasn't that tasty. Had to add a lot of seasoning to the chicken.

I added chicken broth instead of water, like the other users recommended. I sprinkled thyme instead of parsley. Also, I sautéed a few onion slices in the butter before the chicken, and used flour instead of cornstarch. Really super flavors, and it was a man pleaser as well.

was not easy to make whatsoever. the sauce was horrific. I will never make this again.
