Ingredients

  • 4 pieces boneless chicken breast about 6 ounces each
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 12 slices thin sliced ham
  • 4 slices of Swiss cheese
  • 1 piece raw egg
  • 4 teaspoon butter softened
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tsp paprika optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Combine softened butter and salt then mix well
  • Place a piece of chicken breast in a flat surface then brush the top with the butter-salt mixture and sprinkle some paprika.
  • Top the chicken breast with ham slices followed by the Swiss Cheese
  • Start rolling the chicken breast from one end to the other. Make sure that it is tightly rolled. You may use a toothpick to fasten the end of the chicken breast to keep it from rolling back.
  • After rolling all the chicken breast, combine the remaining butter-salt mixture with egg and whisk until every ingredient is evenly distributed.
  • Brush the outer part of the chicken breasts with the egg-butter-salt mixture then dredge in bread crumbs.
  • Place the chicken breasts in a greased baking dish then bake for 25 minutes. If the chicken is not fully cooked by this time, you can loosely cover it with aluminum foil and continue baking at lower temperature until the chicken is cooked.
  • Remove from the oven and slice into individual servings.
  • Serve hot. Share and enjoy!

    I wanna try this recipe. I like chicken cordon bleu so much. The blended sweetness of ham and saltiness of cheese rolled with chicken is so yummy!

    Btw, my maternal grandma’s maiden name is Merano. I wonder if were from the same province-- Romblon! ๐Ÿ™‚

      Try toasted Canadian rye bread. Ground in a blender makes a Panko style breading; and if you dredge the cordon in the egg/butter mix by holding it together with your hand, then keep hold of it and dredge in the crumbs, you’ll be happy with the results.

    Hi,

    I am back -- I had been trying almost all the recipes you I have picked from your site. I will find time to give feedback soon.

    as for this -- I am in the Phil. -- we don’t find swiss cheese very often. I saw above that velveeta is ok -- What about the magnolia quickmelt cheese? di kaya supermelt? I wonder. Or perhaps -- the ordinary cheese of magnolia? this is not cheddar -- creamy sya.

    More power to you and to all who shared.

    thanks

    hello kuya! I love all of your recipes! You practically taught me how to cook! I just wanted to ask if you slice the chicken to make it thinner, I tried making this but all the cheese came flowing out of the end. What am i doing wrong?
