Great recipe! I did change a few things though. I did not wrap the chicken breasts with bacon or roll the breasts, instead I made a more traditional stuffed chicken breast seasoned with some salt and pepper. For the filling mixture added cooked italian sausage, a little more parmesan cheese and some freshly grated romano cheese to the filling mixture. Everyone loved the filling! Thanks for the recipe!

I gave this 3 stars because it required a lot of tweaking... once I got it right, it was really good though! First of all, the amount of stuffing this makes is plenty for double the amount of meat. You could use 4 whole chicken breasts and there's plenty to go around! Also, two pieces of bacon wrapped around the chicken is overkill. you really can use just one and cut it in half to make two pieces. Also, I would recommend using a little less seasoning. I did about 1 1/2 instead of 2 and it worked out a lot better. After those changes, this tasted great!

This was really good, but I think that next time I will not use so much garlic in the spinich/cheese mixture! I will be making this again!

This recipe is not only easy to make, it is delicious. After reading all the other reviews that it is heavy and greasy from the bacon, I used turkey bacon, which is not very fatty at all. I found that it was lighter than it would have been with regular pork bacon. I also made 2 cutlets with broccoli rather than spinach (my guy doesn't eat spinach) he loved it also!

WOW! What a wonderful dish! My 4 yr. old son enjoyed helping me "pound" out the chicken...which is always key, when he gets to help he's more likely to eat it! He also was my "toothpick holder"... since wrapping the bacon all the way around seemed the way to go! Then just tucked the sides up and in w/ a toothpick. A little bit messy, but well worth it! Beautiful presentation!!! Loved it!

mmmmmmmmmm....this was GREAT!!! I made this last night (minus the bacon) and it came out wonderful. The only thing I'll do differently next time is season the chicken a little more. Otherwise..absolutely perfect!

I thought this was a very good recipe, however I did not wrap the chicken in bacon. I thought it would be way too much fat and calories. It was delicious without the bacon, and we didn't miss it all. If the chicken needs to brown a little more, just put under the broiler on low. I also used part skim ricotta cheese. Delicious! Will definitely make and again and serve to company.

Very tasty, my picky husband loved it! Definitely rich but very good. I didn't have tooth picks so I just took the pieces of bacon and wrapped them entirely around the stuffed chicken and it worked quite well. It was actually a lot easier of a recipe to assemble than I initially thought and I will be making this again!

I found it difficult to wrap the chicken as well. My boyfriend enjoyed it and gave it a 4 star rating.

I decided to cook this dish for 12 people who were all bacon lovers, thankfully, because the amount of bacon that the recipe called for created quite an excess amount of bacon grease that filled half the pan. It does not present that well to serve the chicken in a dish full of grease so I would recommend removing them to a separate dish before serving and perhaps using the "pat dry" method with a paper towel to remove the excess. I also added chopped pine nuts in the olive oil with the garlic to give the creamy filling some crunchy variation which turned out to be great. Overall a tasty dish but a bit heavy. We all know that anything cooked in bacon fat = delicious, but this is not a low calorie meal.
