    Chicken Cordon Bleu
    Jump to Recipe

    Chicken Cordon Bleu is chicken breast rolled up with ham and cheese baked in the middle. This meal is a hit with my kids and it's easier than you think to make!

    This easy to make chicken cordon blue recipe only takes a few minutes to put together, 30 minutes to bake and a few minutes to make the creamy cheese sauce. It would go perfectly with my easy to make 10 minute mac & cheese recipe or these Crispy Air Fryer Potato Skins. I served it with a homemade side salad, Thermomix mashed potato, and a creamy cheesy sauce (recipe below).

    Ingredients
      

    Chicken

    • 3 large chicken breasts
    • 12 pieces ham
    • 6 pieces swiss cheese
    • 4 eggs
    • ¼ cup milk
    • 2 cups panko crumbs
    • 2 cups plain flour
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1 teaspoon salt & pepper
    • toothpicks to hold the chicken together

    Creamy Sauce

    • 3 tablespoon butter
    • 2 tablespoon plain flour
    • 2 cups milk
    • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
    • ¼ cup parmesan cheese
    • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    • salt and pepper

    Instructions
     

    Chicken

    • Preheat oven to 180°c (fan-forced) and line a baking tray with baking paper.
    • Put flour, bread crumbs and egg wash in separate containers. Add eggs, milk, and 1 tablespoon of flour and whisk to create the egg wash. The flour makes the egg wash thicker and helps it stick better.
    • Butterfly the chicken breasts. To do this, sit the chicken breast on a cutting board, place your hand on the top of it, and slowly slice it in half, making it a thinner piece of chicken.
    • Bang out the chicken using a rolling pin or tenderiser with glad wrap on top to about 1cm thick. Cut the thin chicken breasts in half, making 2 pieces.
    • Add a dash of seasoning (garlic, onion powder, salt and pepper) on each piece and top with ham and cheese.
    • Carefully roll up each piece.
    • Coat in flour, dip in egg wash and then panko bread crumbs. Place on a baking tray and spray with some olive oil.
    • You may want to add some toothpicks to hold the shape when baking.
    • Place in oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until the chicken has cooked through.

    Creamy Sauce

    • In a saucepan on a medium heat, melt butter until bubbling and add flour to make a raux.
    • Slowly add milk as you are whisking until thick and smooth.
    • Allow simmering for 3 minutes while mixing every minute.
    • Add mustard, garlic powder, salt and pepper and parmesan cheese.
    • Stir until cheese has melted and serve on top of the chicken.
