Cheesy Chicken Roll-Ups<\/a><\/h2>\n
“Very tasty chicken dish that is quite easy to prepare. Can be prepped ahead of time and placed in the fridge until you are ready to cook. Serve on it’s own or on top of rice or pasta. You could cut these up and serve them as appetizers … they would be a huge hit!” – Maggie<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Cheesy Garlic Stuffed Chicken<\/a><\/h2>\n
“Everyone I have made this for absolutely loves it! So many flavors and just the right amount of juiciness for this chicken dish. Rolling the chicken in butter keeps it so juicy. I always pour a little more on top of the breaded chicken right before it goes in the oven.” – Christina<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Stuffed Chicken Parmesan<\/a><\/h2>\n
“This is a great new take on Chicken Parmesan. It’s delicious and filling! It has a creamy cheesy spinach stuffing. You can top it with your favorite sauce and add mozzarella to finish it off. Great served with roasted potatoes, garlic mashed potatoes, or some kind of pasta.” – Annamaria<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

“This recipe is a great alternative to regular pizza. It’s just plain delicious. It’s also a great meal for those who are looking for a high-protein\/low-carb dish. From beginning to end, it takes less than half an hour to make, and it’s so simple to throw together.” – Robyn<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Crispy Cheddar Chicken<\/a><\/h2>\n
“This chicken dish is quick and easy and delish! I do these a little differently than most. Can use Ritz crackers, but I like the bread crumbs as I like to taste the cheddar cheese. I also like the texture of the bread crumbs better. I also do not use eggs to dip the chicken in. By the way, it is very kid-friendly.” – Tammy<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Pimento Cheese Stuffed Chicken<\/a><\/h2>\n
“When we decided a while back to move south, I started reading up on Southern cooking and absolutely fell in love with Southern favorites. My husband often enjoyed the new types of recipes I tried, but always asked for the same old PA Dutch favorites that were so traditional to our upbringing. But now he asks when the next new recipe is coming. Yay! Of all of the things I’ve tried, this is the one he asks for the most.” – Renee<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
