SUPER SIMPLE CHICKEN CORDON BLEU WITH A TWIST

Steps:

• Pound chicken breast to ¼-inch thickness. (We have our local butcher do them here, he butterflies and pounds the breast, so you have a super flat piece of chicken breast.).
• Fry chopped onion in a bit of oil until brown, set aside.
• Sprinkle each chicken breast on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Place 1 herbed gouda cheese slice, then 1 smoked turkey slice then 1 white cheddar slice and add a bit of the chopped fried onions on top of cheese in each breast.
• Roll up each breast using toothpicks to secure if necessary. (I didn't need toothpicks, if you roll tight enough you should be fine.).
• Prepare three separate bowls...
• Bowl 1- Flour: Add some paprika, salt & pepper and a dash of garlic powder to this flour.
• Bowl 2- Egg: one egg beaten.
• Bowl 3- Bread crumbs: I used fine plain bread crumbs.
• Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shake off excess, then in egg and finally in bread crumbs. Its not that bad, I thought it would be, just do it gently in each bowl. You may need to use your fingers to coat a bit if the breast doesn't pick up enough, it worked our fine when I did this.).
• Place seam side down in baking dish that has been sprayed with a non-stick cooking spray.
• Add 1 tablespoon butter on top of each piece of chicken.
• Bake at 350° turning each breast once to brown the other side. I think about 45 minutes or so was fine for me. As you can see form pick they came out a nice golden brown.
