YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY! I cut my chicken into bite size pieces instead of cooking them whole, and I like my food to burst with flavor so I upped the pesto sauce to about 3 or 4 Tbsp. and the feta to about 3/4 cup. SOOOO GOOD! 5 stars no less.

This recipe was excellent and got rave reviews from all who tasted it. The only thing I did different was, I didn't marinate the chicken. The chicken breasts I get are very large and I was afraid they might not cook through without burning the puff pastry. So, I cubed the chicken and cooked it off with a little salt and pepper first. The chicken was a little dry, so next time I might pound out pieces of the chicken instead.

This recipe sounded good and my husband and I love Mediterranean food. I was surprised by just how good this was. Great flavor. We were suppose to take this to Dinner with friends but ended up eating most of it and had to make something else.

Wow, I made this for dinner tonight and it came out perfect It's true as others said, you only need half the pastry the recipe calls for ... and I chose not to soak the chicken in garlic and egg (which really didn't matter) instead I mashed some crushed garlic into the Feta cheese, pounded the chicken breast flat covered the chicken with the cheese and then rolled it together and placed it on top of the spinach, then topped it with the basil pesto and dried tomatoes - the chicken came out tender and it was absolutely delicious! My husband just loved it!

Very good, pretty simple. I chopped the chicken up before marinating so it would be easy to dig into once it cooked. I added some kalamata olives for fun. One pastry easily serves 2 people. Its a LOT of food.

my family and i didnt care for this recipe - just didnt hit the spot i guess. i do have to say that the ingredients blended well together and although i think it's a very good recipe, it just didnt work with us. but thanks for the opportunity to try it!

This was sooo good. Even my picky kids loved it. My only problem with it was that I kept going back and picking at the leftovers until I was miserable. I didn't follow the recipe exactly due to lack of on-hand ingredients. I marinated the chicken for several hours in a bottled garlic/herb marinade, so I didn't use egg. I didn't have any sun dried tomatoes so I used a can of diced tomatoes (drained) for tomato flavor. I will definitely make this again.

Delicious... extremly flavorful. I used half the puff pastry as suggested and still had some trouble finishing my plate... That's still a lot of puff pastry!! Maybe next time I'll use some brick pastry instead.

Restaurant quality! I used 1/2 sheet of puff pastry rolled out a little to make getting the pastry around the chicken a little easier. I used some 'mediterranean pesto' (seemed like olive tapanade) instead of the pesto and sundried tomatoes, I used fresh spinach and herbed feta cheese. YUM! The cooking time for mine was a little longer because my chicken hadn't thawed all the way when I wrapped them. I think this dish is very versatile and I plan to use it a lot with all kinds of different things with the chicken! (I also didn't marinate ahead of time and the chicken was still great- and the leftovers warmed up for a delicious lunch today!) Thanks for a keeper!!
