Chicken Cordon Bleu

This has been one of my favorite dinners for as long as I can remember. It only requires a handful of ingredients and minimal effort, which is always nice! There are literally thousands of recipes for this out there but none quite this easy. If you wanted to "dress it up", you could make a white wine sauce to serve over it. Enjoy!

Chicken Cordon Bleu

What You'll Need:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 8 thin slices of ham
• 4 slices of Aged Swiss cheese
• 1 egg
• 2 Tablespoons of milk
• 1 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  (regular or Panko, your choice)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375.

In a small bowl, beat egg into the milk. Put bread crumbs into another small bowl. 

Pound chicken breasts to 1/2 inch thickness.

Place two slices of ham and one slice of cheese on each breast. 

Roll from wide end toward narrow end of breast.

Dip each roll in egg wash and then bread crumbs.
