We were ambivalent about this--I'm not giving any stars because I did modify the recipe. I thought the plain cream cheese filling was exactly that...too plain. And even with sprucing it up, we didn't particularly care for the filling. My fiance didn't like the texture and I just thought it needed to be more savory to counter the sweetness of the glaze. I used the onion and chives cream cheese, added garlic powder and pepper and it was still too sweet as a filling. Maybe a swiss cheese type filling would be more appealing to us. It was a good recipe but not fantastic and not something I'd make again as directed.

The dish got good reviews from everyone--including my husband, who doesn't like nuts. No one found it too sweet, but I'll admit I didn't baste it too often. I unintentionally used a chive and onion cream cheese which was fine, and 8 oz (by weight) of pecans was way too much. I pounded the chicken rather thin, so my cooking time was well under an hour. Aside from the elegant presentation what I really liked was being to prepare it well in advance of the cooking time!
