CHICKEN CORDON BLEU SANDWICH
I had made some rolls out of Recipe#81211 by Chef Marie.And didn't want to just put any ordinary sandwich fillings in it. So, I came up with the idea for a chicken sandwich which I think is so good it doesn't need any mayo.And if you know me I eat mayo, on any sandwich.:) .This is a recipe for one so if you want you can make another one to share, or maybe not ;)The ham that I used was the wafer type luncheon meat. The cooking time includes time under the broiler. Submitted to "ZAAR" on January 14th, 2009.

A quick twist on a regular grilled cheese sandwich. I made this to use up some leftovers in my fridge, and it turned out great. I seasoned the chicken breast with seasoned salt.

Tips:
- For a crispier sandwich, use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs.
- If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin to pound the chicken breasts thin.
- Be sure to season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper before cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken breasts. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Use a medium heat when cooking the chicken breasts. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- Once the chicken breasts are cooked through, remove them from the pan and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing.
- For a more flavorful sandwich, use a good quality Swiss cheese.
- If you don't have time to make your own honey mustard sauce, you can use store-bought.
- Serve the chicken cordon bleu sandwich immediately on toasted bread.
Conclusion:
The chicken cordon bleu sandwich is a classic dish that is sure to please everyone. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it simple or loaded with toppings, this sandwich is a delicious and satisfying meal.
