Herb and Cheddar Cordon Bleu

  • Prepare the Oven and Ingredients:
    • Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C).
    • Lay each chicken breast between two sheets of wax paper. Using a rolling pin or meat mallet, flatten the chicken to about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Assemble the Rolls:
    • Place one slice of ham and one slice of cheddar cheese on each chicken breast.
    • Roll the chicken breast tightly around the filling. Use toothpicks or small skewers to secure the rolls, if needed.
  • Set Up the Coating Stations:
    • Beat the egg in a shallow dish.
    • In separate dishes or foil-lined plates, prepare the flour in one and the dried herb and breadcrumb mixture in another.
  • Coat the Chicken:
    • Dredge each chicken roll in the flour, ensuring an even coating.
    • Dip the floured chicken into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off.
    • Press the chicken into the breadcrumb and herb mixture, coating it thoroughly on all sides.
  • Bake:
    • Lightly oil or butter a baking dish. Place the coated chicken rolls seam-side down in the dish.
    • Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown.
  • Serve:
    • Remove toothpicks or skewers before serving. Enjoy warm as a flavorful main dish!
