  So I cut the chicken breast in half and pounded them semi flat. I then wrapped the pesto mixture in the chicken & wrapped them w/ butcher twine. I used 1 tsp of garlic salt, 1 tsp of thyme, 1 tsp of basil, 1 tsp of oregano, 1 tsp of papirka & pepper to taste mixed in 3 tblspn olive oil for marinade. - 4/24/12

  it was good. since i used store bought pesto, i will add a little more garlic. i used the foreman grill but i think it drain out a lot of the juices. so next time i will try to bake at 350. either way this one is going down in notebook - 4/21/10

  My husband and I love it and he always asks me to make it. Not a heavy meal. I put a little bit of grated parmesan cheese on top and I bake it instead at 350 for about 25 minutes - 2/26/13

  Took inspiration from this but used 2% cottage cheese and laughing cow wedge which I added herbs like pesto would have in it--fresh basil when I have it--I sometimes pound my chicken flat then add filling and roll --I often bake in a 425 oven after searing -use cast iron pan - 1/15/21

  I love the simplicity of this recipe and it is very tasty. I added garlic. I also cut the chicken and then pounded it flat so that it rolled up easier. I secured it with a couple of well placed toothpicks while baking. - 2/16/20

  Looks bland - tastes indulgent. I think it could use more spice to the cheese mix though...maybe a little oregano or italian seasoning blend to amp up the flavor. - 11/11/19

  My boyfriend and I looooved this! We didn't have any mozzarella. Some filling was left, so we thinly spread it on the filets. They came out juicy, fragrant and tasty. We had the filets with roasted ratatouille - also from spark recipes. Heavenly! - 8/30/16

  I subbed in a slice of muenster cheese cut up like shredded cheese for the mozz + homemade pesto. I added paprika, garlic salt, cayenne pepper, salt + pepper. It was DELICIOUS and I will make it again (but next time, with actual mozzarella). The cayenne really brought it to the next level. - 8/1/16

  Not as good as I had hoped, based on the reviews, just ok. I did add a little 'sauce' to it (and I baked it instead of grilling) as one of the reviewers suggested for a marinade and that helped the flavor a lot. We found it just a bit bland. Okay for a new menu, but not one to repeat. - 10/1/13

  I think maybe I did this wrong?! Mine was kind of ok, next time i might use a little less pesto. I started out using a grillpan, buit couldnt really flip them over because all of teh stuffing would have come out. So i swapped to putting them under the grill in my oven - 6/30/10
