KETO CHICKEN CORDON BLEU MEATBALLS
These ham-stuffed chicken meatballs topped with a creamy Swiss cheese sauce are delicious served over zucchini noodles or mashed cauliflower, or simply on their own! A great way to use up leftover ham. I've used diced ham, however cubed ham work better as the meatballs keep their shape better. Grate your own cheese; it melts much better than the pre-shredded variety.

Steps:
- Combine chicken, almond flour, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and egg in a bowl. Form a small portion of chicken mixture into a 1 1/2-inch ball around a cube of ham and place onto a plate. Repeat with remaining chicken mixture and ham, making 20 meatballs total.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown meatballs for 3 minutes, turn, and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer meatballs onto a clean plate.
- Return skillet to medium heat and melt butter. Whisk in chicken broth and Dijon mustard and bring to a simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and whisk until sauce begins to simmer. Whisk in Swiss cheese until completely melted. Return meatballs to skillet and simmer until sauce has slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with cracked black pepper and parsley. Serve immediately. Sauce will further thicken upon cooling.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts. For this recipe, you'll want to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so that they cook evenly. If you don't have boneless, skinless chicken breasts, you can easily remove the bones and skin yourself.
- Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. This will help them cook evenly and quickly. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
- Season the chicken breasts generously. This will help them to be flavorful and juicy. You can use your favorite seasonings, or try the ones suggested in the recipe.
- Use high-quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that you enjoy. You can use any type of cheese that you like, but a good melting cheese like mozzarella or cheddar is a good choice.
- Don't overcook the chicken breasts. Chicken breasts are very easy to overcook, so it's important to keep an eye on them while they're cooking. The chicken breasts are cooked through when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Conclusion:
This keto open-faced chicken cordon bleu is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great choice for a party or potluck. The chicken breasts are juicy and flavorful, and the cheese is melted and gooey. The whole dish is topped with a delicious creamy sauce. If you're looking for a new keto recipe to try, this is the one for you!
