Chicken Cordon Bleu

Servings

4 Servings

Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts; skinned and boned
  • 4 slices of deli i prefer goosebreast if you cant find kosher goosebreast my 2nd choice is beef pastrami
  • 2 eggs; beaten
  • 1 cup white flour
  • 1 cup golden unflavored breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup Panko
  • Spices to taste
  • 2 tablespoon mayonnaise i highly recommend regular
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard

Instructions

  • Mix together your sauce, set aside.
  • Mix together the breading mix, spicing to your taste. i like a little Italian seasonings and salt.
  • Lay the chicken breasts between 2 sheets of parchment paper and tenderize to about 1/4 in thick, being careful not to rip the flesh.
  • Trim the slices of deli so that they are smaller than the breasts and lay a slice on top of each breast.
  • Spread some dressing over the deli, enough to cover but don't let it drip as it will ooze out of the breading.
  • Roll the chicken breast up, being careful to hold in the filling. (you can fold it over if you cant get it to roll)
  • Gently dip each rolled up breast first in the egg and then in the breading mix.
  • Repeat the dipping egg and then breading until the chicken is well coated and the filling is completely enclosed.
  • Pour enough oil to fill a large frying pan about 1.5inches. Heat the oil to 375*F.
  • Fry the chicken  for 7 minutes, then lower the heat and cook for another 5 minutes to make sure the breading doesn't burn while the chicken is completely cooked through.
  • Remove with a slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain.
