There's a tasty surprise tucked inside these rolled chicken breasts from field editor Anna Free of Plymouth, Ohio. The flavorful mushroom-mozzarella filling is perked up with chives and pimientos. A golden crumb topping adds a bit of crunch to the tender chicken bundles. They're sure to impress guests.
