Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe
Course: MainCuisine: FrenchDifficulty: EasyChicken Cordon Bleu is a classic French dish that has become popular all around the world.
Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
8 thin slices of ham
4 slices of Swiss cheese
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Using a meat mallet, pound the chicken breasts until they are an even thickness of about 1/4 inch. This will help the chicken cook evenly and make it easier to stuff.
- Layer two slices of ham and one slice of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast, then roll it up tightly. Secure each roll with toothpicks or kitchen twine.
- In a shallow dish, mix together the breadcrumbs, flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs.
- Dip each chicken roll in the egg mixture, then roll it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs onto the chicken to make sure they stick.
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken rolls and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Chicken Cordon Bleu is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion or just a weeknight dinner. Serve it with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad for a complete meal. Try this recipe out for yourself and enjoy the rich and flavorful combination of chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese!
