GRILLED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU

Categories     main-dish

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 pound bacon
1 large onion (Vidalia are the best), sliced into rings
10 oz crumbled blue cheese
mushrooms
raspberry vinaigrette
garlic salt
seasoned salt
black pepper
parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Steps:

  • Remove all the fat from the chicken. Using a meat tenderizer, pound chicken until it is all one thickness--the thinner the better. Season the chicken front and back with garlic salt and pepper. Take the seasoned chicken, place in a bowl, and cover with raspberry vinaigrette. Let sit in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours. Turn chicken every once in a while to make sure it is coated with the vinaigrette marinade.
  • After marinating, remove chicken. Evenly sprinkle a thin layer of blue cheese over each breast. Pepper the chicken. Slowly roll up the chicken and secure with a toothpick. Take a piece of bacon, wrap around the chicken and secure again with toothpick. Continue rolling all chicken breasts.
  • On a large sheet of aluminum foil, spread rings of onion in the center and sprinkle with mushrooms. Drizzle with raspberry vinaigrette. Set chicken bundles on onions and mushrooms and drizzle with more raspberry vinaigrette. Season with seasoned salt. Cover with more foil and fold in the sides so it creates a pouch and the juices do not escape.
  • Throw on grill and occasionally turn for the next 25 to 45 minutes ( depending on how hot your grill is). When done, crack the top of the foil open and sprinkle freshly grated parmesan over the chicken. Serve. I hope you enjoy.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup firmly packed fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, chopped
1/2 shallot, chopped
Grated zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds medium summer squash, such as yellow pattypan, cousa or zucchini, cut into 1-inch chunks
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (6 to 8 ounces each)
Freshly ground pepper
4 thin slices Swiss cheese
4 thin slices deli ham
2 cups spring mix salad blend (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Toss the squash with 2 tablespoons of the parsley sauce; spread in a single layer in a large cast-iron skillet. Transfer the skillet to one side of the grill; cook until the squash softens, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, rub the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill on the other side of the grill until just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Top each chicken breast with a slice of cheese, then a slice of ham. Cover and cook until the cheese melts, about 2 more minutes.
  • Serve the chicken with the salad greens and squash. Top with the remaining parsley sauce.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chicken breast for best results. Organic or free-range chicken is ideal.
  • Pound the chicken breasts thin to ensure even cooking. This will also help the chicken breasts to absorb the flavors of the marinade.
  • If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts thin.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken breasts for at least 30 minutes. This will help them to absorb the flavors of the marinade and stay moist during cooking.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the chicken breasts for 30 minutes, you can use a quick marinade. Simply combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add the chicken breasts. Let the chicken breasts sit in the marinade for at least 15 minutes.
  • When cooking the chicken breasts, be sure to cook them over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken breasts from drying out.
  • Once the chicken breasts are cooked through, let them rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken breasts.

Conclusion:

BBQ Chicken Cordon Bleu is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. With its juicy chicken, crispy breading, and melted cheese, this dish is sure to be a hit with everyone. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or coleslaw.
