Open faced Chicken Cordon Bleuposted 6/24/08 12:02 am
This is a very easy recipe that I use because it is easy to please the whole family...some don't eat ham, some no cheese, others just the chicken. But everyone loves it. Relatively inexpensive to fix and definately high protein low carb version. For the family I serve it with rice. For me I add a little extra spinach and skip the rice.
4 chicken cutlets (1 pound total; about 1/4 inch thick) 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 8 spinach leaves, trimmed 4 thin slices boiled ham (2 ounces) 3 ounces Swiss cheese coarsely grated (1 cup) or slices *Preheat broiler. *Pat chicken dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper. *Heat butter in a flameproof 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides. *Sauté chicken in butter, without turning, until cooked through and undersides are golden, about 2-5 minutes based on thickness. *Remove from heat and turn chicken over, then top each cutlet with 2 spinach leaves, 1 slice ham (folding it to fit), and 1/4 cup cheese. *Broil 3 inches from heat until cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes. 0 Responses to "Open faced Chicken Cordon Bleu"Be the first to comment!Sign in to comment!
