Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
Four 5-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt
4 large thin slices Emmentaler or Swiss cheese (approximately 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the mustard and mascarpone. Set aside.

Remove from the heat.

FILET OF BEEF CORDON BLEU-STYLE RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Filet of Beef Cordon Bleu-Style Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by rossboys

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 filets of beef, about 10 oz each, choice grade or above
Salt and pepper to taste
3 Tbsp neutral cooking oil
2 bunches asparagus, extra large, ends trimmed
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
6 Tbsp whole butter
10 sprigs of thyme
1/4 lb prosciutto di Parma, thinly sliced
4-8 slices Swiss cheese or Gruyere
3 cups whipped potatoes, for 2/3 cup per serving (Note: Make them stiffer and place in plastic piping bag)

Steps:

  • The technique: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a heavy saute pan on medium-high heat. Season steaks evenly and on all sides with salt and fresh ground black pepper. Add cooking oil to saute pan and sear steaks on all sides. Really develop a good crust. Don't rush it. Remove steaks and pour off oil. Let them sit a couple of minutes, then put them back in the pan and place them in the oven and cook to desired internal temperature. While steaks are cooking, trim bottoms of asparagus and peel if you like. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Place them in a single layer on a sided baking sheet and roast them 5-7 minutes. I like mine with a little bite. Remove steaks from pan and add whole butter to the pan. Once it melts, add thyme and then place steaks back in pan. Tilt pan and, using a large spoon, baste the steaks with the butter. Remove steaks and let rest again. Lay out proscuitto and roll around filet. If you need to, use two pieces. You can also use a toothpick to secure the prosciutto -- just make sure you remove it before serving. Place wrapped file on pan and top with 1-2 pieces of cheese. Place under broiler just until the cheese starts to bubble. To plate: Pipe the whipped potatoes onto dinner plate. Lean a pile of asparagus (all tips facing same way)against the potatoes. Nestle the filet in the space left between the potatoes and the asparagus. If you are using a sauce, pool it in front of the filet. (Bearnaise or mornay sauce would go great with this dish).

ORIGINAL CHICKEN CORDON BLEU



Original Chicken Cordon Bleu image

This classic French chicken dish, adapted from Jane and Michael Stern's book "American Gourmet," more than lives up to its name ("cordon bleu" means "blue ribbon"). It's also far easier to make than you may think. A chicken breast is pounded thin (we've been known to cheat by using pretrimmed cutlets), then wrapped around a slice of smoked ham and a bit of Swiss cheese, and secured with toothpicks. The roulade is coated in egg and bread crumbs, then pan-fried until golden brown, and a simple white wine cream sauce finishes it off.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large boneless and skinless chicken breast halves (about 1 1/2 pounds)
4 thin slices smoked ham
2 ounces Swiss cheese, cut into 4 equal "fingers"
1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 large egg, beaten
3/4 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/4 cup unsalted butter
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons chicken stock
3/4 cup white wine, heavy cream or additional chicken stock

Steps:

  • Lay the chicken breasts between pieces of wax paper and use a mallet to pound them to 1/4 inch to 1/8 inch thick. Take care not to pound holes in the chicken. Layer each breast with the ham, then place a finger of cheese in the center. Roll up to completely enclose the ham and cheese and secure with toothpicks.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Lightly dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour, then dip in the egg and coat with bread crumbs. Place on a baking sheet and chill at least 15 minutes and up to 4 hours.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the butter. Add the chicken and cook, turning carefully with tongs, until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of the stock to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Move the chicken to a warm platter.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of stock to the skillet, raise the heat to high, and cook, stirring up browned bits clinging to the bottom, for 1 minute. Add the wine (or heavy cream or additional stock), lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the consistency of gravy, about 45 seconds. Pour over the chicken breasts and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use good quality cuts of beef and ham, as well as flavorful cheeses. This will make a big difference in the overall taste of the dish.
  • Pound the beef thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly. If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin.
  • Don't overstuff the beef rolls: Otherwise, they will be difficult to roll up and the filling may spill out during cooking.
  • Use a toothpick or skewer to secure the beef rolls: This will help them stay closed during cooking.
  • Cook the beef rolls until they are golden brown and cooked through: The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
  • Serve the beef rolls immediately: They are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Beefy Cordon Bleu is a delicious and satisfying dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is made with tender beef, flavorful ham, and melted cheese, all wrapped in a crispy filo pastry. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this restaurant-quality dish at home. So next time you are looking for a special meal to impress your family and friends, give Beefy Cordon Bleu a try. You won't be disappointed!
