Chicken Cordon Blue Cheese

Total Time: 1 hr 20 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 8 slices black forest ham
• 8 teaspoons crumbled blue cheese
• 1/2 cup shake-n-bake (original, extra crisp, one pouch)
• 1/4 cup milk
• pepper

Recipe

• 1 prepare your boneless skinless chicken breasts by slicing them almost in half through the side - butterflying them.
• 2 spread them open and set aside.
• 3 pour your milk on a plate the appropriate size for your chicken breast to sit on.
• 4 sprinkle your shake 'n' bake mixed with pepper to taste on another plate the same size.
• 5 place two slices of ham together neatly.
• 6 in the center of the ham sprinkle two teaspoons of blue cheese.
• 7 roll the ham rather tightly to avoid losing your cheese.
• 8 place the ham in the middle of the chicken breast and close it - secure with a couple of toothpicks.
• 9 gently place the chicken in the milk and with your hand pat the top with the milk - a gentle milk bath will secure the shake 'n' bake and keep the chicken moist.
• 10 now gently place in the shake 'n' bake and pat crumbles on the top and sides.
• 11 place the breasts in a baking dish and cook at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
• 12 allow the chicken to cool for 5 minutes before removing the toothpics and serve.
