    I used this recipe as a guide and ingredients that I had on hand. I used feta cheese instead of bleu and toasted walnuts in lieu of pecans. I also added 4 chopped artichoke hearts. Feta cheese and artichoke hearts: Greek influence. The only grainy mustard I had was creole, and I didn't want that flavor in the gravy. So I used regular yellow mustard. The gravy was very good but would have been better with the grainy mustard as specified. Even with my alterations, I'm confident in a 5-Star rating for this recipe as presented. One note though: If your breasts are as large as the ones I used, you will get 6 to 8 good servings instead of 4.

    Made this again with the ingredients specified, plus one. Prior to going in the oven, I spooned some pomegranate molasses over them. It turned out very pretty and gave them a very slight sweet hit. I will certainly do this again.

    Wow! I love blue cheese but I am sorry, in this dish it is totally overwhelming. IF, I ever make it again I will use goat cheese or another milder cheese.

    I recently had the opportunity to cook my parent's their first dinner as "empty nesters" and used this recipe! It was a HIT! My grandmother was a professional cook/chef and so it is difficult to please my dad with just any recipe and he LOVED this one. Instead of blue cheese though, I used feta since not many in my family care much for the strong taste of blue cheese. Definitely one to keep close in the cookbook!

    My husband is always very appreciative of my efforts in the kitchen but I have to admit- it's been a while since I've hit a homerun with a new recipe. Had googled chicken breast recipes and was happy to see that I had all the incredients for this one. As soon as he took his first bite- he excitedly proclaimed- "Oh yeah- this one's a keeper!" Followed the recipe to a tee except added some mushrooms to the sauce. Fabulous! Might try with prociutto next time as the bacon was a little less done than I would have liked but it tasted wonderful non the less. Not sure what Plano's Bootscobler was talking about except the calories. But hey- life is short- bon appetit!

    Absolutely delicious! This recipe is my family's favorite. My son was wary of the mustard sauce but after tasting it he said "This is so good I can just drink it!"

    this was great. I could taste the pecans and they added a great flavor. The blue cheese wasn't to overpowering. The sauce...very very good. Thanks

    Delicious. Next time I will use cooking twine instead of toothpicks. It didn't stay together.

    I just made this dish today. It was actually a lot more work than you think and with the amount of time I spent, I'd expect a super awesome taste. The presentation is pretty nice but the taste was nothing to rave about. This dish is very very heavy and I feel like I am about to get a heart attack from it's unhealthy ingredients. Sorry guys but I was pretty disappointed. I have tried several recipes here and most of them turned out great. RR' recipes had been either hit or miss. If you want to gain weight quickly, make this dish.
