I had Honey Maple Bacon on hand, so I used plain cream cheese instead of onion & chive.

It turned out wonderfully. I can't wait to try it again with the original recipe.

This was really delicious. A lot of people are saying it needed more cream cheese but I think that probably depends on the size of the breast. I didn't add the butter or salt, and I don't think it was missing it without it. It's very salty as it is with no salt.

This chicken is sooo yummy, & easy to make. I made it for a dinner party, & it was a hit. I've even used bacon bits instead of wrapping it, & it still turned out great. I'll make it for years to come

Yummy! I used extra cream cheese, but I guess that's a matter of preference. I made it once without the butter (because I forgot it) and it turned out just fine. My kids and grandkids love this chicken.

This was so good. I actually used thin chicken strips and they were super easy to roll up. This is definitely a keeper! YUMMY!

A wonderful recipe. It's quick, easy and delicious. The chicken was very tender. I prepared the chicken early in the day then refrigerated until time to cook. I will definately make this again!
