The Best Chicken Dish You've Probably Never Heard Of... 

Right after college, I worked on Broad street in downtown Manhattan. There used to be this place named Rosario's where we would often go to lunch. They made a delicious chicken involtini similar to this but with red sauce. The stuffing had ricotta in it. The inspiration for this recipe comes from them. You can always find the print recipe (link to my website or written out if not yet available) in the description above. Thanks for watching and liking my videos🙏

I don't know what I love more, the actual cooking, or watching this awesome dad interact with his son. How many kiddos even know what piccata is? Ugh, my heart just burst! You guys are too sweet.

You are the only cook that when my eight year old hears your voice, he comes running to see what you are making. The only thing is, he expects me to prepare whatever he sees you cook lol. He also likes your small plates.

Parents raising their kids with flavor in their food made me tear up a bit. That boy is luckier than he will ever know

I can't believe I just found this channel. Instantly one of my favorites.

A very well done version of this dish. The ingredients are so well suited to combine. James is tough, man. 8.5 He's pushing you to up your game. 😊

Pam here…love how you look at your son, and then smile at the camera like you’re so proud of how he takes his ‘job’ so seriously!! Adorable.

Rediscovered this channel a little recently and I'm so excited to cook all these great meals. Felt compelled to give you props on your production style too. Simple, clean, professional. Zero tropey youtube annoyances. Well done.

I love that you involve your son in this. It looks like a lot more fun that having to hold the flashlight under the hood of a car.

It’s nice to see parents involving the children in the kitchen. I have good memories helping my dad in the kitchen.

Thank you for sharing your dish here. It is very nice the way you show your cooking style...Please continue to share your meals.

I am awful at cooking, and have been watching your videos for the simple and straightforward manner in which you present the information. Thank you for that. Also, I just love how your face lights up when you look at your son. It’s the cherry on top of all of this.

Super dish! Simple too! I love it when you have James do the taste tests. He's already got a pretty sophisticated pallet - not surprising when he grew up with you making the food. People who love to cook, LOVE people who love to eat!!!

Fabulous as always and the great taste tester makes even better.Watching the love on your face watching him is priceless great to see a happy loving family interaction in this crazy world we live in.😊😊😊Thank you.

I made this last night in my tiny kitchen in my studio apartment in Jackson Heights, Queens. This is among the most delicious dishes I've ever made. The butter, lemon, parsley, cheese, bread crumbs and mushrooms - all come together perfectly.

I moved to Australia with my Aussie husband several months ago. I am really missing some REAL Italian food. I stumbled across your channel and this recipe. Keep in mind that it's Winter in mid-July here, so I wanted something warm and yummy and ITALIAN! I could not find Fontina in the local grocery store, so I used Gruyere instead. This was THE BEST chicken recipe- and it would have been even better with Fontina, I know- but it was so amazing! I have saved at least a dozen of your recipes that I will be preparing in the near future! Thank you so much for your amazing channel!!!!

I've been making a version of this for myself ever since I first had it at Harry Caray's in Chicago. I go with a filling of layered prosciutto, provolone, and basil with a red sauce. This version looks fantastic.

Your son has the best job ever. Another delicious recipe. Was never a fan of cooked spinach but this definitely makes me think otherwise. Thank you for sharing!

Definitely one of the best cooking shows on youtube. Thank you for your excellent work

Man your channel has really grown fast! Keep up the good work. Your channel is one of my favorite cooking channels on RU-vid now.

James completely makes this a great lesson👍🥰

I love the way he cooks for his son. It is very touching . . .

Love the vibe of your videos! 🙏🏾💜

Made this with a slice of prosciutto between the stuffing and chicken. So good

This channel is so underrated! I literally watch every single video!

RU-vid recommended one of your videos and now I've been on a binge. Also, your son has the best job ever!

This recipe is up next. I've loved all of Jim's recipes so far. The Tuscan black pepper beef was my favorite so far.

your recipes are all amazing! your cooking style and the ingredients you often use are my favs. thanks for another awesome dish to try!

My Italian cooking playlist is getting long, I noticed I had a lot of videos from S&F so I just subscribed. Thanks for making your recipes approachable. You’re a natural teacher and my family has eaten well because of you at least one weeknight a week.

omg. I just made the chicken, mushroom. marsala pasta. Shared with my son and his bride. I will certainly make the the chicken dish you've never heard of next weekend. Wonderful recipes! Thanks, Jill

Is going to try your amazing stuffed chicken with spinach and mushrooms!

OMG I absolutely love your videos. I love the way you talk like a regular guy and help all us other regular guys!! Thank you Paisano!

Jim, just have to say thank you for posting this recipe. Your channel has sparked an interest in cooking your recipes. It’s been fun! This chicken dish was fantastic, the dish looks elegant like from a 4 star restaurant. I’m now watching you and your wife’s new Podcast. Thank so much and best of luck to you and your family😊

Made this for dinner tonight and everyone loved it. I like it because I could do everything up to the oven baking ahead of time. It is also pretty tolerant of being left in the oven a bit too long - the sauce keeps it from drying out. I think I overdid the lemon just a bit though, used the juice of a whole lemon. This dish is going into the reperatoire!

I’ve been cooking for many years and like a lot of experienced cooks, I mainly use recipes for inspiration and basic guides for creating a dish. I ran across this “inspiration” as I was planning a family dinner prior to my moms funeral last month. I almost doubled the recipe but otherwise followed your instructions, maybe a little more butter, some parm. To make a long story short it was fantastic. In the words of my picky, judgmental sister...”best thing you ever cooked!” I appreciate having this recipe at a tough time and watching you put it together gave me just what I needed to feed the gang. Keep up the great videos and give James a raise!

Yout little guy is so lucky to have you cooking for him. What a great chicken dish. Nice fore company!

Don't ever stop making these videos 💞🇨🇦

Definitely going onto my “ to make” list! I just know it’s going to taste fabulous. Thank you 🙏

Pounding the chicken in a ziplock bag, perfect. I saw Wolfgang Puck doing this and have been doing it ever since. Really makes clean up so much easier

I think this is the mysterious dish someone made for me once. I was never been able to figure out what it was. Thank you!

Looks great! I love the blend of ingredients you use for the filling, and will definitely be something I try next time. I do find that chicken breasts tend to overcook easily and get dry (mom complains about dry chicken even when it's not) so I may try to attempt with chicken thighs even though it will be a lot harder to get into a nice wrap, or I might do chicken breasts but just cook on a slightly lower heat setting. Most of all, I wanted to comment on that wonderful smile on your face whenever you see your son eating your food and he doesn't even bother to comment on it yet because he's too busy eating it. You guys have a great relationship, and I think it's a lot to envy that your son is so good about loving your cooking (coming from a family of very picky eaters, cooking for a group has always been very challenging for me). Keep up the good work!

Another fantastic dish! I'll be trying this one out.

I usually do not post comments, but I like your videos. They are short but show the relevant learning steps, and focus on cooking... and not on trying to be funny or emphasizing your ego, or trying to come across as a "character." Rare these days. Thank you. I will keep watching them.

I have made this recipe so many times!!! It’s my favorite chicken recipe so delicious!! Thanks for all your recipes man you are my go to for almost all my dinner recipes g go or family and friends

Great dish! I just love how you share your passion with your son.

Made this for dinner tonight. It's was fun to make and was delicious. Thanks! You rock. I give it nine James.

Thank you for this recipe. Sometimes your kids can be your harshest critics, so if it passes them, it's probably a winner.

I have a nearly identical recipe we use for PORK, works equally well. Only difference is we ad a a bit of Minced Tomatoes (in season) or peeled tomatoes well drained.

I came up with a dish similar to this several years ago. I coated the inside with basil pesto then St. Louis style provel cheese, spinach around a mushroom duxelles center. I rolled it in plastic wrap and tied the ends like a sausage and poached it then cooled it then breaded it. I do not remember what sauce I did but it was very popular 👍

4:34 "Let's roll one up" Damn right I am, and then I'm gonna eat that chicken. Solid recipe buddy.

I made this and have to say it is the BEST chicken recipe ever. Thanks so much!

First recipe I've seen of yours and I love the recipe and your attitude. No bullshit.

I have to say, I've been subbed for a while now. Your relationship with your son reminds me of my relationship with mine. Keep up the great work!! Also, you give me great ideas. Thanks.

Thank you so much for including your preparation process! Thanks to you, I now know how to peel garlic!

Your recipes are really very delicious and amazing I love the way you cook and the way you represent. very nice.| Keep growing.❤❤

How adorable, looks like a great recipe to try! :)

Love this post...and was waiting since you teased it: 1) That sink works!?...I thought it was staging prop!! (I kid...I Kid!!☺️) 2) Didn't know you can have 1/2 James...Fine lad as him...1/2 is still very 👍 good!) 3)Another great recipe...see your point on many options...Add pine nuts to stuffing...Pound out turkey tenderloin and make a roll up..ricotta..etc...awesome post. So cool that you share these dishes from your journeys!!

I never watch cooking videos but RU-vid decided it was time for me to start.. the other day i combined a few of your recipes and made a spicy vodka sauce type thing that was really good and easy. Thanks for making uncomplicated but appealing videos! I'm looking forward to trying out your other recipes.

So good yummy When I roll the chicken I wrap them in clear paper and put then in the fridge for 15 minutes. No toothpick needed.

Thank you for simplifying a fancy-looking recipe. I'll be veganizing this beautiful dish by using your method and filling and subbing sliced eggplant for chicken and making the filling dairy, salt and oil-free. I'll brown them under the broiler then put in an oil-free garlic-wine-broth-fresh tomato sauce. I've done this before as an eggplant/tofu ricotta/marinara sauce so I think these rollatinis will be great over pasta and look very pretty. 💕

I hadn’t seen this video until today because once I start to watch others that you’ve presented, I lose track! Lol! This dish looks awesome too. I will be adding it to my list and can’t wait to try the stuffing mixture in the chicken. I love Fontina cheese. Your son keeps getting better as the taste tester; perhaps he will follow in your footsteps and decide culinary is for him one day. Great video and just the right presentation of this dish.

Made this for my boyfriend who is the cook in the relationship and can give constructive criticism when I cook and he really enjoyed it very much thanks for recipe!

your channel is a tonic. thanks.

Oh my! This is actually the best chicken dish I've never heard of! 🤤

I used to make something like that years ago, thanks for bringing back that memory!

Well you did it again Jim. Excellent recipe. I didn’t have Spinach or Mushrooms on hand so I used Kale and jalapeños but with the Fontina cheese this was delicious!

Saw this video yesterday and made this today! It’s a total winner, winner chicken dinner! 🍗🐔🧄

I've got to try this one soon!!! Thanks Jim!!!

I actually made this dish last year and everyone loved 👍🏻 good recipe the vid just popped up out of nowhere reminding me to make this again 👀 thanks for the reminder 😅

Thank you for sharing.Can't wait to make it!

This thing my grandma makes and it's best thing ever

I actually made this dish,,,but wrapped it up with prosciutto,,,,it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 😋

Enjoy your technique/ presentation and telling the size pan you're using. Keep up the good work.

looks great, I love stuffing chicken. I will roast a nice thick piece of tomato, provolone and parm over the top, when you go to finish it in the oven.

Hi Jim, I will be making this for Saturday night dinner. Thank you again for your terrific videos. :)

I want to try this, but with thighs, not breasts. I'm also thinking I could cook these indirectly on the charcoal grill (Weber Kettle) to get a little smokey flavor. The sauce would not have the fond in it, but I think the smoke would be a fair tradeoff. I love versatile recipes. Thanks!

Another winner! Thanks for sharing.

Looks great, and I, too, liked the turkey breast idea.

You're so fun to watch! I am totally going to try lots of these on my 15 year old daughter.

Different filling, but to James's suggestion, I did a "turchetta" turkey breast for Thanksgiving, Butterflied a boneless turkey breast, stuffed it with porchetta seasoning/stuffing, and roasted it. It sliced into the prettiest, least dry, super flavorful turkey I have ever had. But the concept would also be fab with other fillings!

I love your manner. I really love how you include your son

This looks really delicious! Funny, because I've been recently thinking about a similar recipe my mom used to make back in the 80's called "Rollo de Pollo" -- the filling involved a jar of Kraft cheese spread and chopped green chilies, and instead of bread crumbs, it called for crushed Cheese Its mixed with taco seasonings, lol.

You make this look simple… or at least achievable. Always looks DELICIOUS

UK viewer and just discovered this channel and love it. Could I offer a suggestion that with dishes like these could you include in your videos some info on whether they can be 'pre-made' and kept in the fridge then just cooked at the last minute? Looks like this one could be but would like some advice....

Since your videos are the only thing I can handle right now because I am sick , and you accidentally popped up in my algorithm , I can easily say I am binging since Friday 😅 great videos !

Nice! Wrapped chicken topped wit thin layer of mayo& bread crumbs is surprisingly good as well✌️

Ingredients bought and ready to go! Can’t wait. You never steer us wrong.

Thanks for my next recipe to conquer! Looking forward to this!

This looks fantastic. I am putting it on my list.

Another great recipe. Thanks again.

I love your son's hair! So much wave! Also this chicken looks so delicious I am going to have to make it.

I like your style, quick and to the point. Looks good! A commitment but I will give a go. Thanks!

Looks great, and I appreciate the step by step instructions.

So glad I came across your channel. I subscribed. Your cooking looks simple, healthy and elegantly presented. I will sure try your recipes. I already have the ingredients.

Thank you for your recipee, you are so great!

Great content as always mate!

Juuuuuust discovered you. Fantastic! And your accent! Will try cooking this this week. Greetings from a Brit in LA. :)
