Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
8 slices bacon
1 (16 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 (12 ounce bottle) apple ale, such as Red's®, divided
2 tablespoons cornstarch, divided
1 cup milk
⅓ cup salted butter
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups dry bread crumbs
8 thin slices Swiss cheese, cut in half

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.

Cordon Bleu-inspired chicken with a rich, creamy sauce and prosciutto.

Provided by Jgavs385

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 11

nonstick cooking spray
2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 slices Swiss cheese
4 slices prosciutto
½ cup seasoned bread crumbs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
¼ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon water, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 7x11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Place chicken on a cutting board. Holding a sharp knife horizontal to the board, cut a 3-inch deep pocket lengthwise in the thick side of each breast. Place a slice of Swiss cheese and two slices of prosciutto in the pocket of each chicken breast. Place in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle chicken evenly with breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Place 1/2 tablespoon of butter on top of each chicken breast.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • While chicken bakes, prepare sauce by mixing soup, sour cream, and lemon juice together in a pot. Heat over medium heat until sauce thins a bit. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to thin sauce to desired consistency (should be slightly runny to pour over chicken).
  • Top chicken with sauce and serve.

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU WITH A CREAMY MUSTARD WINE



Bacon Wrapped Chicken Cordon Bleu With a Creamy Mustard Wine image

This is my version of Chicken Cordon Bleu. Just a bit different. I love the original recipe, but didn't like it with a bread coating every time. So for me, the gruyere adds just a notch up, the hickory bacon and then a simple mustard white wine sauce makes a very elegant dinner. Serve with some very simple wild rice or rice pilaf and green beans. Nothing fancy needed for this. VERY Classic eats.

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 chicken breasts, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 chicken breasts, pounded thin
4 slices prosciutto ham (or you can use any good baked ham)
3/4 cup gruyere cheese, shredded (or you can use 4 slices of swiss)
8 slices of hickory bacon (don't use thick sliced, just regular)
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup diced onion (I prefer shallots, but a regular onion will work fine)
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine (if you don't want to use wine, just use all chicken stock or broth)
3/4 cup heavy cream (or you can use evaporated milk or even light cream and even milk, I just like the consistency of hea)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (I love to mix dijon and ground mustard but if you only have dijon, that if just fine, If you like mo)
1/2 teaspoon fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Chicken -- Now you can buy your chicken breasts scallopini and pounded for you, and pay a pretty price. Or you can just buy a "regular" chicken breast and put them between some saran wrap and pound away. I use a meat mallet, but use a rolling pin or a can of vegetables, brick, back of a frying pan or pot. Anything will work. Just pound thin.
  • Stuff the chicken -- season well with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Then then lay a slice of the ham down and then some shredded gruyere or slices or swiss cheese. Either works just fine and then roll up. Wrap 2 slices of bacon around the chicken roll and secure with a tooth pick.
  • In a oven proof saute pan melt the butter and olive oil and bring to a medium hight heat. Then add the chicken and saute on each side until lightly brown, and the bacon begins to get crisp. Then transfer the chicken to the oven to finish cooking at 400 for about 10-12 minutes is all. Just makes sure the bacon is crisp and done. It doesn't take long. Remove and transfer to a plate and cover. It will continue to cook.
  • Sauce -- get everything ready. This is a quick sauce. Once the chicken comes out just transfer the pan back to the stove top. On medium heat, add the onion to the pan and cook just a minute. Add the wine, broth and let reduce just a minute or so. Reduce the heat and remove when you add the cream, mustard and seasoning and herbs. Return to the heat and just stir and let reduce just a bit on medium low and heat to combine all the ingredients and naturally thicken. It takes 3-4 minutes if that.
  • Dinner is served -- chicken is done and sauce is perfect. Serve the chicken roll with the creamy mustard sauce. As I said, I love some wild rice or rice pilaf with the sauce and some green beans on the side, but use anything you enjoy.

BACON-WRAPPED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU



Bacon-Wrapped Chicken Cordon Bleu image

Really moist and flavorful chicken cordon bleu with bacon.....because everything's better with bacon! This was a first-time experimental trial run and it turned out fantastic!

Provided by geenadavissmile

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h20m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts, thawed
3 slices cooked ham
3 slices swiss cheese
1 egg
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1/2-3/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/2-1 teaspoon cumin
1/4-1/2 teaspoon oregano
salt and pepper
6 slices bacon, uncooked

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken bullion cubes, crushed up, the bread crumbs, (or I used 6 pieces of toast, crushed into crumbs) cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Cut boneless, skinless chicken breasts in half long ways leaving one side intact. Insert one slice of the sliced pre-cooked ham and one slice of Swiss cheese into center of each chicken breast.
  • Beat the egg in a mixing bowl and coat each chicken breast. Then coat each one in the bread crumb mixture. Wrap two pieces of bacon around each chicken breast, not overlapping.
  • Wrap each piece of chicken individually in a piece of aluminum foil loosely so that it can be opened on the top. Place all three in a 13 x 9 inches baking dish. Cook for 1 hour, 15 minutes. It may take less time (again, this was the first time doing this). At that point, turn oven to broil at 400 degrees. Open the tops of each of the chicken pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes to finish cooking the bacon.

2 cups panko breadcrumbs
1 teaspoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Lay the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap.
  • Using the flat side of a meat mallet, gently pound the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness.
  • Take care not to pound too hard because the meat may tear or create holes.
  • Lay 2 slices of cheese on each breast, followed by 2 slices of ham, and 2 more of cheese; leaving a 1/2-inch margin on all sides to help seal the roll.
  • Tuck in the sides of the breast and roll up tight like a jellyroll.
  • Squeeze the log gently to seal.
  • Season the flour with salt and pepper; spread out on waxed paper or in a flat dish.

  • Gently coat in the bread crumbs.
  • Carefully transfer the roulades to a baking pan and bake for 20 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  • Cut into pinwheels before serving.

STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS (CORDON BLEU)



Stuffed Chicken Breasts (Cordon Bleu) image

This versatile recipe will work with any filling, just make about 1 1/2 cups of it (3 tbsp per breast). Also, if you don't have a meat mallet you can use a heavy glass bottle (just don't miss!).

Provided by MommyMakes

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
3/4 cup diced deli ham
3/4 cup shredded swiss cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Place a chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound flat and thin without breaking through the meat (Ideally this would make a 1/8 inch thick rectangle).
  • Remove plastic wrap, season with salt and pepper, repeat with remaining breasts.
  • Mix diced ham and shredded cheese together in a bowl, spoon 2-3 tbsp of mixture onto each flattened breast.
  • Fold in the bottom and sides and roll up (this is often difficult to do depending on how the breast flattens out, so I just fold them over and stick lots of tooth picks in them to keep them closed).
  • Combine bread crumbs and parmesan cheese, brush each roll with olive oil and roll in crumb mixture to coat.
  • Place rolls, seam side down, in a shallow baking dish and bake uncovered for 25 minutes (or until chicken is thoroughly cooked).
  • Remove toothpicks before serving!

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU



Bacon Wrapped Chicken Cordon Bleu image

This was the main entrée for my Valentine's Dinner. My husband really loved it. I had never made Cordon Bleu before, so I studied several recipes from various cookbooks & came up with my own version. It is much easier if you buy the chicken breast already boned, but because these were on sale, I could not pass up such a great...

Provided by Rose Mary Mogan

Categories     Pork

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 chicken breasts (boneless)pounded flat
4 slice thick sliced swiss cheese (or cheese of choice)
4 slice thick sliced ham ( i used polish ham)
1 1/2 Tbsp steak seasonig
1 1/2 Tbsp paprika & granulated garlic
1 1/2 c panko bread crumbs
8 slice bacon
non stick cooking spray
grape tomatoes & fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. I used Sanderson Chicken Breast, & after removing the bone it weighed just over one pound each. Which is why they could easily be cut in half after baking to make 2 servings each piece if desired.
  • 2. Remove Bone from chicken breast if they are not boneless. Add the panko bread crumbs to a large zip lock bag, then add garlic powder and paprika, shake and set aside till needed.
  • 3. Place each breast between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and pound each breast with meat mallet until they are flat.
  • 4. Breasts should look like this. Season chicken breast lightly on both the inside and out side with steak seasoning.
  • 5. Now lay a slice of ham towards the outer edge of breast, and then top with a slice of Swiss cheese. Begin at outer edge of chicken breast, and roll towards other end of breast, tucking in the outer edges as much as possible to keep the cheese inside breast as it cooks. With seam side down carefully wrap two slices of bacon around breast to hold the seams in place. Sprinkle lightly with additional paprika if desired.
  • 6. Repeat until all 4 breast are done.
  • 7. Line a shallow baking pan with aluminum foil & Spray with non stick cooking spray. Now carefully place each breast on baking pan leaving space between each breast. Then spray each breast generously with butter flavored cooking spray, then top each breast with a generous amount of the bread crumbs dividing equally between the four breast. Then spray top of bread crumbs with additional cooking spray. Now place in preheated 350 degrees F. oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until juices run clear.
  • 8. Remove Breasts from baking pan to a serving platter, and garnish with fresh parsley and grape or cherry tomatoes if desired, or use garnishes of your choice. Serve and enjoy.

Tips:

  • For a crispy bacon wrapping, pre-cook the bacon until it's almost done, but not completely crispy. This will help it stay intact while cooking the meatloaf.
  • To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meatloaf. It should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before removing it from the oven.
  • For a more flavorful meatloaf, use a variety of cheeses in the filling. A combination of mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan cheese works well.
  • If you're short on time, you can use pre-cooked chicken instead of raw chicken. Just be sure to cook it according to the package directions before assembling the meatloaf.
  • Serve the meatloaf with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
