Because I have a busy schedule, I like to keep a batch of these tender chicken rolls in the freezer. Coated with golden crumbs, they seem fancy enough for company. I've substituted mozzarella cheese for the provolone and pastrami for the ham with equally delicious results. —Barbara Wobser, Sandusky, Ohio

love it with swiss instead of provolone. Has anyone made it with broccoli and cheese? Please let me know.

This sounds really good but there are no nutritional values included. The number of carbs is very important in our home due to diabetes. Can you send those numbers to me? Thanks.

This was an extremely easy recipe! And I was able to freeze half, so I have plenty for another dinner! I did substitute swiss cheese for the provolone, so it was a little more like a cordon bleu, which was fun. This is great for beginning cooks who want to impress their guests!

After the first bite, my husband declared this good enough for company!

My family loved these .. my 6yr old couldn't get enough! I made a bunch of these and froze some uncooked. On a busy workday, I take a few out in the morning, then pop in the oven when I get home. Quick and easy. I'm always looking for easy but wholesome meals for my family. Since I work fulltime, I dont want our family meals to suffer.

My family loves these and they are easy to make. I leave the ham out of a couple since one of my sons doesn't like ham. Just use a colored toothpick on those and we can easily identify which is which!

These were excellent. I made them the day before and when I got home from work, I just popped them in the oven. Steam some broccoli and a salad and it's a great meal!
