Cordon Bleu Breakfast Strudel Recipes

CHICKEN CORDON BLEU I

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 7x11 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Pound chicken breasts to 1/4 inch thickness.
• Sprinkle each piece of chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Place 1 cheese slice and 1 ham slice on top of each breast. Roll up each breast, and secure with a toothpick. Place in baking dish, and sprinkle chicken evenly with bread crumbs.
• Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink. Remove from oven, and place 1/2 cheese slice on top of each breast. Return to oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted. Remove toothpicks, and serve immediately.

STUFFED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place chicken in the freezer until slightly frozen, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and cut in half when cool.
• Add mushrooms and garlic to the bacon fat and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes.
• Mix 1/2 of the ale with 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a small bowl. Add to the mushroom mixture; cook and stir until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Combine milk and butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook until butter melts and mixture is warm. Mix remaining beer with remaining cornstarch in a small bowl; add to the milk mixture along with chicken bouillon. Cook and stir until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and combine with mushroom mixture.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a casserole dish with parchment paper.
• Place eggs in a pie plate and mix with a fork until beaten. Place bread crumbs in a separate pie plate.
• Remove chicken from the freezer. Cut a small pocket into each breast; do not cut in half or cheese will melt out during baking. Divide bacon and Swiss cheese evenly and stuff in chicken breasts. Immediately dip in beaten egg mixture, then dredge in bread crumbs. Place in the prepared casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Just before the chicken is ready, warm the cream sauce on the stove.
• Plate chicken and ladle warm sauce over each portion.

CRISPY, CREAMY CHICKEN CORDON BLEU RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, tossing to coat evenly.
• On a cutting board, place a chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound until about ½ inch (1 cm) thick with a meat mallet, rolling pin, or heavy pan.
• Remove the plastic wrap and place 2 slices of Swiss cheese, then 2 slices of ham, then another layer of Swiss cheese, and another layer of ham. Evenly roll the chicken and place onto a new sheet of plastic wrap.
• Wrap the chicken in the plastic wrap tightly and use the excess plastic on the sides to twist, firming up the roll of chicken cordon bleu as you work. Tie the excess plastic. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, then chill the rolls in the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a tall-sided pan with 2 inches (5 cm) of oil to 325°F (170°C).
• After the rolls are set, prepare 2 separate large, wide dishes with the flour, beaten egg, and bread crumbs. Dredge the chicken first in the flour, then the egg, and then bread crumbs.
• Place the breaded chicken cordon bleu in the oil and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until the outside is an even golden brown. If a good color is achieved and the chicken's center is still not 165°F (75°C), place the chicken cordon bleu on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and finish the chicken in the oven at 325°F (170°C) until that temperature is reached.
• Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a 1 ½-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook the garlic until soft. Add the flour and whisk for 1 minute.
• Add the milk and whisk until fully combined with the roux and no lumps remain. Continue whisking until the mixture comes to a simmer and has thickened.
• Add the mustard, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper and whisk to combine. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Slice the chicken and serve drizzled with Dijon sauce.
• Enjoy!
