Total Time: 50 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 35 mins

Ingredients

• 4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless
• 1/4 cup dijon mustard, spicy brown mustard can be used as well
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise, use real mayonnaise as the other stuff will separate
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/3 cup walnuts, shelled
• 3 cups corn flakes
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
• 3 tablespoons blue cheese, crumbled
• 4 slices bacon, fully cooked and crumbled
• 2 tablespoons honey, for drizzling

Recipe

• 1 preheat oven to 350 degrees f.
• 2 in a small mixing bowl, combine mustard, mayonnaise, and honey. stir until well blended. set aside.
• 3 lightly spray or grease a cookie sheet or an 8x8 glass casserole dish and set aside.
• 4 in a food processor, add walnuts and corn flakes. process until crumbly. alternatively, place walnuts and corn flakes in a large sandwich bag and using a can or rolling pin, crush ingredients until crumbly.
• 5 dump the crumbs out into a shallow pie pan or a large plate and set aside.
• 6 in the same food processor, dump in cream cheese, blue cheese, and bacon. pulse until well mixed. (this may be easier for some people to just it all in a bowl and use an electric mixer, or a wooden spoon - when i tried it, my processor did not like trying to move the cream cheese so i ended up doing it by hand). set aside.
• 7 place 1 chicken breast half between two sheets of plastic wrap or wax paper. using a meat mallet or a rolling pin, pound lightly until breast half is flattened to 1/4 inch thickness. repeat with remaining chicken breast halves.
• 8 taking one flattened chicken piece at a time, spread or drop about 1 to 2 tablespoons of the blue cheese filling in the middle.
• 9 roll the chicken up length-wise, tucking in sides as you roll.
• 10 i normally insert one or two toothpicks to hold the roll together.
• 11 dip the chicken roll into the liquid coating sauce, making sure to coat all sides and the ends.
• 12 roll the chicken and sauce in the crumb mixture, coating well.
• 13 place chicken on the prepared pan.
• 14 repeat the last six steps with remaining chicken.
• 15 drizzle remaining honey over all the chicken pieces.
• 16 bake in the middle oven on the middle rack for 3 to 40 minutes until chicken is cooked through.
• 17 after cooking, remove toothpicks (if used) and serve.
