  1. Tricia says:

    I have used Swiss cheese, hot pepper jack cheese, and even provolone. All good

    1. Heidi says:

      That’s a great tip, Tricia… thanks so much for sharing!

  2. Cherie Epps says:

    I didn’t have 2 cans cream of mushroom so I substituted with cream of chicken- plus I used sliced Gouda – we really enjoyed this – it’s a keeper!!!

    1. Heidi says:

      Those sound like delicious twists, Cherie… and I’m so glad you liked it! 🙂

  3. Julie says:

    I added ham slices before the cheese right on the chicken and continued with the recipe as written. It was so good. Like a cross between chicken cordon bleu and a mini thanksgiving dinner! I also served cranberry sauce on the side! I highly recommend it!

    1. Heidi says:

      That sounds like a delicious twist, Julie!

  4. Shaylee says:

    Hi, has anyone made this with FROZEN chicken breasts?
    I have made this in the past and we love it! It’s been a while since I made it, so I can’t remember for sure if I thawed my chicken lol
    Thanks!

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      I’ve found it works best with fresh or thawed chicken.

  5. Betsy says:

    This recipe could not be easier and it is absolutely delicious! One of my go to meals when I know I’m going to have a busy day.

    1. Heidi says:

      So glad you liked it, Betsy! 🙂

  6. Merissa Ward says:

    Can you use chicken broth instead of milk?

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      You sure can, it will just be a tiny bit less creamy.

  7. Nikkole says:

    Would this come out good if i just chop the chicken into bite size pieces? This recipe is similar to what i make but I bake in the oven.

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      If you’d like bite sized pieces, I’ve found it’s better to chop it up at the end, to avoid the chicken getting too tough and overcooked.

  8. Mari says:

    I’m trying to reduce my calories. Is there to make this healthier by using half a stick of butter?

    1. Heidi Miller says:

      I think it might be too dry.
