easy and quick on a weeknight but I must say I grow weary of the "health" police... if you don't like or approve of a recipe... just keep quiet... the rest of us will enjoy and share our positive thoughts.... just a nice way to step up a meal for our families!

This was delicious. I read the other comments first, so I decided to experiment . I bought some new thin, long metal skewers. I used 1 1/2 slice of cheese for each chicken breast; stuffed it in tight and then "sewed" the opening shut with the skewer. I cooked them on the grill, and only lost a tiny bit of cheese. Give it a try, the skewers came in a pack of 4 at Kroger for $2.99.

Very easy and simple recipe to make on the fly. I switched the cheese to shredded Monterey Jack with Jalapeno Pepper, it gave the chicken some pop. Broiling this recipe worked out better then expected.

This is a good, easy recipe. I used Provolone cheese instead of pepper jack.

If only you could grill this and the cheese didn't melt all out. It's great tasting and a great idea, but I think putting the cheese in at the end is the way. No way you can grill this without losing all the cheese. I think you need to cut the pocket, grill and baste it with the barbecue sauce and the last 5 minutes or so, stuff the cheese into the pocket.

Everyone in my house loved this..I thought the cheese may be too spicy for my little ones but they loved it..a nice easy change.

A quick & easy favorite. My fiance has often requested for me to make it again. We like to just add the pepperjack when the chicken is about done cooking rather than placing the slice of cheese inside the chicken breast because it seems like it melts too much when it's under the broiler that long. Countryside BBQ sauce is great in this recipe.

This recipe was delish! I used about 3 slices of cheese after reading other reviews and it was wonderful paired with my seasoned green beans and corn bread... this will definitely be a staple in my home :)
