    Very Good
    It was quite delicious though the only problems were that the breeding was still really powdery when I took it out, it took 45 minutes instead of 20-25, and the cheese didn't really stay inside the chicken. Overall though I just scooped some of the cheese that oozed out from the pan and put it back - 2/29/16

    Good
    It was very good, but needed a little more flavor in the chicken. (not too sure exactly what to add, but it needs something). Make sure that you don't over-coat the chicken in the flour mixture- I would recommend dipping it in the flour mixture before stuffing it. - 2/11/10
