This is the second time I've made this. The first time, the chicken was totally overcooked at 400 degrees F for 20 minutes, so this time, I cut it back to 375. The photo chicken breast was 10 oz (huge) and, again, it was slightly overcooked at 20 minutes at 375. My supermarkets do not carry garlic-flavored cream cheese, so I used lower fat cream cheese and added garlic powder (and some chopped chives) to it. I also used some herb seasoned Pepperidge Farm stuffing which I crushed and used for the breading. What you can do with the cream cheese filling is almost unlimited. My recommendation would be to bake for 15 minutes at 375 degrees F and then use a thermometer to check the internal temp of the chicken. This is very good but would be even better if cooked properly, so it ends up juicy.

I came across this recipe one day and had to try it!! I am not the most patient cook so I typically dont like a recipe that has this many steps but it wasnt nearly as bad as it seemed while reading it!! It was a major hit among the people I made it for and definitly plan on making it again!! The best part is that it wasnt a lot of stuff that I had to go shopping for. I had most everything in my kitchen already!!

I made a few minor changes... I used a Kraft garlic & parmesan [cream cheese] dip in the middle, I used Italian herb mix in place of the Italian seasoning, used plain bread crumbs, and I used only butter rather than butter and oil when I fried the chicken. Firstly, there was way too much "sprinkling" herbs - I only used a quarter of it, if that. I poured the butter from the pan over the chicken before baking it. It needed to be in the oven for 30 minutes and came out nicely. However I think the recipe calls for far too much garlic. I am usually quite insensitive to garlic but this really was too much. Next time I make it I will modify it and use my own herb/spice mixture. A good concept though, with some changes.

This was wonderful! I followed the directions exactly. The only thing I would change is doing the entire process of seasoning and stuffing the chicken one portion at a time, otherwise the seasoning came off the outside of the chicken breast.

Super easy, and my family loved it. I used thin cut chicken breasts, and the oven time only took 15 minutes for super moist chicken! Next time I will venture out and try another flavor cheese spread, maybe roasted red pepper?? Delicious! You know it's good when the kids compliment it!

Eh....it was okay. I was expecting that it would be amazing, seeing as how it involved cream cheese; but it was barely mediocre. The italian seasoning didn't really work in this recipe, and there were none of the mentioned "drippings" to pour over the chicken before serving. It was okay, but I won't make it again.

This was o.k. No one in my family was too thrilled with it. I followed it to a tee but it was still too much garlic and I love garlic. I doubt I'll make this one again.

This was pretty easy to put together and the result was very tasty. I used neufchatel cream cheese (less fat) because it was what I had on hand and it was good this way. When I was done sprinkling the seasoning mixture on the chicken I had some left over so I tossed it into the bread crumbs before rolling the chicken in them. I lined my pan with heavy duty foil for easier clean up. Served with parmesan risotto. Great!

This was a pretty good change, but if I make it again then I'll tweak the recipe some. Maybe using a different kind of cheese, adding some lemon zest...
