This recipie looked delicious, however, not much flavor at all! the chicken is difficult to cook with the toothpicks sticking out and the sage is overpowering. The sauce leaves much to be desired. I LOVE Giada's food but this one was a waste of a trip to the grocery store for extra ingredients.

After preparing this dish, I would not roll the chicken at all. To me, it was too much busy work. I think you could get the same flavor and great dish if you just brown the chicken and cook in skillet with everything else in the sauce. It was good and I will make it again, I just won't be rolling the chicken up.

When I saw this recipe on Everyday Italian, I was anxious to try it out. I even made aspecial trip to the store to buy the ingredients. The finished product left me and my family disappointed. The chicken was very bland and the sauce was boring. It was a waste of ingredients and my time.

I substituted the sage with spinach and it was very delicious! Great recipe, easy to make and prepare plus the melted fontina keeps the rolls together.

the basis of this recipe is great and should be followed but with a few minor alterations... i'm not too fond of sage and fontina so instead, i make a cheese mixture similar to a lasagna cheese mixture for the filling. in a medium mixing bowl i combine 1 cup of mozarella and a small container of ricotta cheese with 1 egg. to this i add approximately 1-2 teaspoons of basil and oregano. easy enough and it tastes delicious. don't cook it on high heat though since you don't want the cheese to become liquid and ooze out.

We were very excited to try this recipe. We've tried several other recipes from Giada and have loved them. This was a total and complete bummer. It was so bad, I threw the recipe away when we were done eating. The sage was way too strong! And the sauce was such a disappointment. i will never make this again and can't recommend it to anyone.

I used prosciutto and blanched spinach instead of the sage, but kept the fontina. Not bad at all. The sauce was wonderful, very flavorful and we definitely didn't have any leftover. But then again, my husband loves tomato sauce of any kind, so we took every bite of the chicken with the sauce. I can see how it'd be good with angel hair pasta. Was simple, but a little more time-consuming than would be desired if you were working and made it on a weeknight. We're not big fans of chicken breast, but will definitely be making this again in the future!

We followed the recipe exactly, and it turned out great. Even better the next day. I put this recipe in my collection, and will make it for my next dinner party.

This was a bit too much work for the finished product. I think it falls a bit short on the tomato sauce. After all the effort and flavor of the chicken (which really is good, I would have hoped for something more from the sauce (perhaps a creamier tomato sauce rather than such an acidic one?.
