So I think you could do 15 breasts (5 packages) for 19 people. You may do yourself a favor and grab one extra 6th pack just to be on the safe side. I always like to have a bit of an emergency back up (and know I'll have enough). <br /><br />Sauteed squashes with red bell pepper sounds lovely! My go-to rice pilaf comes out of a box. LOL! Sorry. But no reason to reinvent the wheel, right? <br /><br />Since this is a rich dish, I like fresh, long green beans (don't cut short). See my post about Lily's Maple Bacon Green Beans. And thanks for the compliment. Sounds like you are having a large dinner party. I wish you luck!

Also would sauteed squashes with a little red bell pair well with rice pilaf? What is your recipe for rice pilaf-do you add any type of veggie when serving cordon bleu? thank you in advance!

This post was years ago, but I believe the one in the photo were roasted. The grape tomatoes were also roasted. You may try a higher roasting temp for a longer time - or even broiling them to get a nice little sear on the top... but watch them carefully to avoid burning them under the broiler. I've done that, too. Ha. <br /><br />Yes, I made up this version of this dish. But there are probably thousands of variations out there. I need to make it more often, as it's always a hit. Great dish for company!

I ne...About the Tomato and Sugar Snap pea recipe... I need help! My peas popped open in the boiling water, & both the peas and tomatoes were soft & smushy! The flavor was excellent so I would like to try them again. The only thing I seem to have done wrong is I bought cherry tomatoes mistakenly - rather than the grape. Perhaps I used a bit too much oil on the tomatoes. I have roasted veggies before, & never had this problem. You didn't list quantities of tomatoes, snap peas, or oil, so maybe if that made a difference. I used one container of tomatoes & 2 1/2 cups snap peas. I ended up not cooking the chicken, b/c my company couldn't come. Just as well, I need to perfect the snap pea recipe. I am however, constantly poking my fork into them, so I guess I can call that my dinner! Thanks for any help you can give me. Did you make up this recipe?

Such as, are you making them ahead of time and refrigerating them? How thin did you pound them? Are you taking them directly from being seared to popping them into the oven? I would guess anywhere from 25-30 minutes, but definitely without a thermometer you will want to take one out and cut into it to make sure the juices run clear, and everything is golden brown.<br /><br />With a thermometer, you always have cooked chicken without it being overdone and dry. It takes all the guesswork out of the equation, and they are only about $20. Perhaps that's something you can put on your Santa list. :)<br /><br />JulieJulie Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559576713539118398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9016562871678830662.post-36987868300718610092014-12-16T02:03:58.456-06:002014-12-16T02:03:58.456-06:00How long do you keep it in the oven if you don'...How long do you keep it in the oven if you don't have a thermometer?
