This recipe was not very good. I was so disappointed and had to throw away the leftovers because neither my husband nor I would eat it again! Big disappointment.

This is a crowd pleaser! I made this for myself, my fiance and my best-friend and her husband. Everyone loved it and they beg me to make it once a week! The rest of my family now has the recipe and they love it too!

This sounded like a great quick and easy recipe but it wasn't that good to me. I'm not sure if it was the cheese I used or not. All I had on hand was an italian cheese mixture and I used that. It just didn't taste very good. I may try it again using the American cheese and see if it's any better, if not I won't be making this one again.

This recipe is amazing! Just tried this out tonight. I made it because I had some guests coming over and this seemed like it would feed a group of people. I did tweak a few things, I used 3 lbs of chicken, I sprinkled the seasonings on, mixed the chicken, the sprinkled some more . I also added garlic powder after the cheese melted. This gave it extra flavoring. But you came up with a wonderful recipe!
