    I'll probably add a gravy or sauce next iime. THis was my first time making a dish like this and it was a lot easier to prepare than I thought. Thank you for sharing - 10/3/07

    only cooking it for 15 minutes , does that get it done all the way through? - 9/30/07

    This was very tasty! Next time I will buy the low-sodium Stove Top--it was a tad salty. - 9/30/07

    The combination of breast and dressing was good. The chicken on its own was plain. We did cook it in cream of chicken soup for 50 minutes at 350 - 1/22/12

    I multiplied by 8 to make this for my family. I used toothpicks to hold the breasts together. I also had to cook it about 30 minutes and had stuffing leftover. I divided the extra stuffing evenly into muffin tins, sprinkled with chicken broth, covered with foil, and baked alongside the breasts. - 4/2/11

    I added a bit to this and it turned out great!! When the chicken was butterflied, I spread spagetti sauce and shredded mozza cheese, then the stuffing. I crushed the rest of the stuffing so that it was very small like bread crumbs. 1/4 C water in pan.
    I have been asked to make it again. Yeahhhh!! - 9/24/10

    I made this last night with a twist on it.... I had to make 7 for my large family, so I baked them in a 9x13 pan with a can of cream of chicken soup in the pan...turned out great...even the kids liked it! - 5/24/10

    OMG....SOOOOO GOOD!!!!!! I filled the raw chicken with the stuffing, placed them in the pan, sprayed them with butter, and sprinkled all of the remaining stuffing crumbs over the chicken. Then I added 1/4 C of water around the edges. Mine came out PERFECT!!!! It wasn't dry at all. Thank you!!!! - 9/2/09

    I'd love some tips on how to keep the chicken moist yet crispy on the outside. I had to cook for 25-30 minutes to get it done, and it ended up being rather dry. I used the low sodium chicken flavored stuffing-- maybe next time I'll try the corn bread flavor. - 5/6/08

    I made this but used Shake N Bake for pork for coating. My picky husband and son loved it and want me to make it again next week. - 2/29/08

    This was an easy dish to make and the whole fam loved it. We have leftovers and plan to take cream of mushroom soup and make a casserole. - 1/15/08

    You could fix this up to taste better, but as is I really didn't care for it. I would never again use the stuffing mix for coating, shake & Bake or bread crumbs would be much better. - 11/1/07
