Monterey Chicken Rolls

Recipe #92072 | 1¼ hours | 30 min prep | add private note

Butter...Garlic...Cheese? Chicken rolled in all? How can this recipe not be a keeper?!! My sister-in-law gave me this recipe some 25 years ago. It's just as good today as it was then - maybe even better since my garlic tastes have increased over the years as well as my "eye-balling" measurements (meaning more garlic!). Just be sure not to overcook as the chicken will be dry - follow these directions and the chicken will be moist. This is a great prepare ahead meal that will impress.

    This is GREAT! We had as written with stuffing, steamed broccoli and rolls. Everyone ate till they were ready to pop! This is definately a repeater! Thanks for sharing Claudia Dawn!

    Made this as written except melted the butter and let some fresh garlic sit in it for about 15 minutes to let the flavors mingle. Delicious chicken dish - I would like to try this with other cheeses as well. Thanks for sharing.

    This is an excellent recipe! The chicken was very very moist which impressed me. (I ususally don't like baked chicken cause you can dry it out easily). I added some Canadian bacon to the rolled up chicken which was good but I'm sure this would be wonderful as written.
