Ingredients
- 3 large boneless chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 6 ounces Asiago cheese (or any good Italian cheese), cut into 2-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup high-quality olive oil
- 2 cups Italian bread crumbs
- 4 dried bay leaves
- 1 large white onion, sliced thickly lengthwise
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Spray a baking pan lightly with cooking spray. Wrap each chicken strips around each cheese cube and secure with a toothpick. Dip chicken in olive oil and then roll in bread crumbs. Place chicken in the baking pan. Top with bay leaves and sliced onions. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked through, and cheese has melted, and bread crumbs are golden brown. Serve.

I made this for the first time last night and it was a huge hit. Thank God for the other reviews, because the instructions were poorly lacking compared to how the reviews saw it prepared on TV. I used thin sliced chicken breast and they were very east to roll. The only thing I will do differently next time is I will try and grate the Asiago. My cubes didn't melt as much as I would have liked, and for me Asiago is too strong a taste to bite a chunk. Other that that a great recipe to prepare ahead of time or for a large crowd.

Wow. This was quick, easy, fast and tasty!!
I couldn't believe how delicious it was considering how quick it was to put together. I also discovered the Italian cheeses section of my supermarket for the first time while hunting for asiago cheese. What a great tasting cheese.
This is one of those recipes I will keep on file for when I find out I have company coming over at the last minute and need to quickly put together a great tasting meal before they arrive. Thanks Paula for this excellent recipe.

This is a great basic recipe that needs to be jazzed up. I read the other reviews and this is what I changed. Roll the chichen bread crumbs wrapped around the asiago cube, dip in olive oil and make sure to use Italian or zesty bread crumbs and brown the chicken in butter and oil. Then place the browned chicken in a glass pan that has chicken stock, white wine, butter, vidalia onions, garlic, onions, and bay leaves. Cook for 15 minutes, then flip the spiedinis and cook another 10 minutes. This turned out to be the most juicy and flavorful chicken EVER!! Like my dinner guest said, "This chicken melts like butter in my mouth."
