This is a fairly easy dish to make. This recipe was found in an old cook book. I tweaked it to add more flavor. It is very very tasty. The chicken is Stuffed with Swiss cheese,and a white wine sauce to go with it. I was told to add this to my home menu of favorites. I will be making this dish many more times to come. I hope you all enjoy my version.
