How to Make Stuffed Chicken Breasts Cordon Bleu
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Place each chicken breast (about 6 ounces each) between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet or a heavy glass bottle, gently pound each breast to 1/4-inch thickness. Be careful not to tear the meat.
- Remove plastic wrap. Season both sides of each chicken breast with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup diced cooked ham, 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese (or your favorite cheese), and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional).
- Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the ham and cheese mixture onto the center of each flattened chicken breast.
- Fold in the sides of the chicken breast, then tightly roll up each breast. Secure with a toothpick.
- In a shallow dish, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Lightly brush each chicken roll with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Roll each chicken breast in the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
- Place the chicken rolls, seam-side down, in a shallow baking dish.
- Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
- Remove toothpicks before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
