How to Make Inside Out Chicken Cordon Blue
- In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1 tsp salt, and ½ tsp black pepper. Seal and shake well to combine.
- Heat 2 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Butterfly each chicken breast: Slice each breast horizontally almost all the way through, creating a pocket. Place the chicken breasts in the breadcrumb bag, one at a time, and shake to coat thoroughly.
- Place the breaded chicken breasts in the hot skillet.
- Cook for 5 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Flip the chicken breasts back to the original side. Evenly distribute 4 oz thinly sliced ham over the chicken pieces.
- Top each chicken breast with 1-2 slices of Swiss cheese (about 2 oz total).
- Cover the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the ham is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
