Million Dollar Chicken Rolls Recipe (2)

Did we mention that this chicken recipe tastes like a million bucks? Well, that is the reason for the name! It is nothing but, rich, creamy, down-right comfy home food that everyone loves! And, although it tastes like a Million Dollars, it is a frugal recipe! In fact, I can feed my whole family on less than one chicken breast with this super entree! Plus it uses our SOS mix, which means it is that much more frugal.

Also, our family loves this dinner treat and loves to make it. It’s fun to make and it is so easy to make that even our 6-year old can make it without much needed supervision. She helps me make it all the time. I make the sauce and put it in the oven and take it out, but she stuffs and rolls the rolls and dips in the coating. It’s one of her favorite things to make and eat!

      I think it is definitely worth a try! It will still probably be pretty tasty, the corn flakes give it that nice southern fried taste without the frying! 🙂 But crispy rice sounds good too because the crunch is what we are also going for!

    Please correct your recipe for the gravy for the million $ chicken rolls. 1and 1/4 cup of the sos mix made a total mess of way way too thick glob. I have a feeling you meant 1/4 cup! Will try that next time. The rolls were good by themselves tho.
