My fiance and I made this dish for my parents on mother's day and it received rave reviews! It was a little labor intensive, I ended up using toothpicks instead of string and cooking the breasts in the pan a little longer than in the oven (I was afraid of undercooking them. I also completely skipped the last step since I have to transfer into an oven-safe pan (we have a stove to oven pan on our wedding registry now!. But the chicken was so tender and juicy that it didn't really need anything else. The stuffing was amazing. I would make again just to eat separately on crackers or something as an app!

This was a great recipe...altho tweaking was necessary. I changed the goat cheese to a HONEY goat cheese to work better with the apricots (this is good if you have little guys to feed. I didn't have sage leaves in house so I used summer savory. Instead of rolling up the chicken breast which is soooo fiddley, I butterflied them and then pounded them out, placed the filling, and folded them together again...much easier with same outcome. This will go into rotation!

This is a labor intensive dish, had to use toothpicks instead of string-- presentation was off but my taste buds didn't care!

I had some leftover sage from making sauce for butternut squash raviolis so I turned to Food Network for some ideas on how to use it up.

This is by far, without a doubt, the greatest meal I have ever cooked. It may say intermediate but with some patience and planning it's pretty simple (as long as you have string-- we had to substitute thread and it took less time than I expected. The flavor is fabulous and it pairs really well with this currant and pistachio couscous recipe: http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Couscous-Timbales-with-Pistachios-Scallions-and-Currants-12367 I am definitely checking out more of Laura Werlin's recipes!

I have prepared this dish many times now for friends and family. It is consistantly good. I usually add or delete ingredients but not with this one. This is easy and presents lovely and tastes fantastic!!! I am going to try the Stillton with Apricot for sure! One less step and would easily be very close in taste for sure! Try it you'll love it!

Oh, my goodness! This is an incredible recipe. I am not a huge goat cheese fan and made one substitution. Costco often has White Stilton with Apricot - - it is amazing in this dish. I'll have to be very careful not to over-use the recipe and burn us out!

This dish received rave reviews at dinner the other night. I was not difficult to do, it was not greasy. Also, the chicken turned out extremely tender. A+

this dish is worderful for a nice dinner for 2! I could have put the "stuffed" inside on just about anything and it would make it good!
I omitted the apircots but used fresh; pineapple sage and regular sage to make up for it. I also used 1/2 goat cheese and 1/2 cream cheese to boost the complexity.

I used dried mango and rosemary instead of the apricots and sage. I was affraid the chicken would be under done instead it was the most tender and delightful chicken dish I've ever made. I served it with steamed carrots with a brown sugar rosemary butter glaze. YUM!

Absolutely delicious. I found that cream cheese did make a good substitute for the goat cheese. I also used rosemary instead of the sage. Wal-Mart didn't have it.
