I'm a very new cook and I'd give this a 10! I followed the directions to a T except instead of microwaving it I put it in the oven at 350 for 35 minutes (microwave was a little too sketchy for me to cook chicken). The sauce is wicked good and my husband is already requesting it again!

Very good and easy to make. I used mozzarella cheese because it is what I had on hand, and it still turned out pretty well. My husband didn't like the flavor of the wine in the sauce, but I thought it was delicious. To each their own!

This was excellent. I added a piece of swiss cheese with the ham to roll up in the chicken. I had a lot of leftover bread crumbs, so next time I will use half.

NOTE: I ONLY MADE THE SAUCE IN THIS RECIPE. That being said, it was excellent! I used whipping cream instead of milk, and I think that made a big difference. I'm sorry, normally I won't review a recipe if I make changes to it, but this sauce is really really good, and I wanted to be helpful to others who might try it. By the way, I used the sauce with the Chicken a la Good recipe, which was awesome too.

I have to admit, I read this recipe and thought, NO WAY can you a)cook *breaded* chicken in a microwave, or b) make a roux-based sauce in a microwave. Are you kidding? But something made me try it, and lo and behold... it was pretty d**n good! For all you skeptics like me, it's actually true, it really works. And the mayo-breadcrumb trick is also really clever. Messy to prepare (I was up to my ELBOWS in mayo)-- but clever, and really tasty. Thanks for showing an old dog some new tricks!!

This was really great! I did cook mine in the oven instead of the microwave (I don't like microwaved meat) and even my ultra picky boyfriend liked it! I also used crushed croutons instead of the breadcrumbs for more flavor. Great recipe!

Sooo good..... I used pork instead of chicken since i'm the onlyone at home who likes chicken. Topped with cooked ham plus a couple of Swiss cheese slices, sprinkled with black pepper, granulated garlic and salt; then rolled up (maybe next time i will try adding asparagus to the filling...) After reading the other reviews, omitted the mayo and used eggs; pan fried the rolls until brown, and baked in the oven along with the sauce. Crispy and delicious!!!! ....the sauce was not to my liking, so i guess i'll try a garlic sauce next time, family loved it though. It's a keeper!!

I'm rating this recipie first for preparation, not taste....Basically because I just made it and it is in the oven right now I haven't tasted it yet. Hands down this is the messiest recipie I have ever made! It took me awhile after making it to clean up my kitchen! I'm not sure whether or not that will deter me from making it again. We'll have to wait til it comes out of the oven and see how it tastes!

I asked my husband to rate this recipe. He rated it 3-1/2. I followed the recipe exactly except I baked it in the oven as others suggested. I wanted the coating to be crispy. I remember I once tried either a fish or pork chop recipe using mayo. Mayo is messy and I think that is why it doesn't get crispy. The sauce was good. The recipe does have possibilities of tweaking it more to my liking.

Didn't work for me-- the taste was bizarre and the prep was too messy. Sauce was too buttery and strange, too.

This chicken is awesome, even my fussy, husband and 8 year old son love it, never any leftovers. I always put this in the oven. The sauce makes the dish special, my parents thought I slaved over this for hours!! Thanks for this one!!

This is a great recipe and easy to prepare ahead of time. It does tastes better cooked in the oven, but is also delicious cooked in the mic too.

Great recipe! I was originally planning to bake this in the oven as others had suggested, but at the last minute, I decided to try the microwave. It turned out wonderfully moist and tender! Just one word to the wise: especially if you're serving this to company, don't use colored toothpicks, as some of the color comes off on the chicken. Oops! Who knew?

fantastic dish! My husband went back for seconds and raved! Followed the user's advice who did this one the quick way by laying bread crumbs down first, then layering all the rest of the ingredients on top and baking for about half hour @ 425. didn't modify this at all except a small sprinkle of garlic. will definately make again!

Very tasty! I didn't cook in in the mocrowave though. Oh, and I added some monteray jack to the ham filling of the breasts. After I rolled them, I put them in a greased casserole dish. I made the sauce on the stove in a large sauce pan. I didn't actully measure anything, just eye balled it. I used some half and half, and some milk. Used way more white wine then called for, and replaced the swiss cheese with monteray jack cheese. I realized that I had forgotten to put the mustard in the chicken breasts, so I put a couple tsps in the sauce instead, which I would highly recomend! Anyway, poured the sauce over the breasts, and cooked them at 350 for about 25-30 mins. Turned out great. We loved it!!! :)

I was very pleased with this recipe. I, too, baked it for 25 min at 450, and it was perfect. I might omit the salt from the sauce next time or use baby swiss instead of aged swiss because it was plenty salty. I really enjoyed the dijon mustard taste. Definitely put the chicken between two layers of plastic wrap before you try to pound it as another reviewer suggested. It's so much less messy. I don't know why I never thought of that before. This recipe is much better than the ones that call for canned soup.
