Inside - Out Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe

Inside - Out Chicken Cordon Bleu

From tuilelaith 14 years ago

Oh my Gosh! This is from Food Network, but it just sounds too good not to put up here. I have got to make this when I get over this darn cold!!!

Mix the jam, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl.
Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap on a cutting board.
Place the chicken on the plastic and brush half of the jam mixture evenly on top of each breast.
Mound a quarter of the cheese on each piece of chicken, then wrap 2 slices of ham around each breast to cover the cheese.
Place another piece of plastic over the chicken and gently pound with a mallet or heavy skillet until about 1/4 inch thick.
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken and cook until golden and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes.
Turn and cook on the other side until cooked through but still moist, 3 to 4 more minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk the shallot, mustard, vinegar and the remaining jam mixture in a medium bowl.
Slowly whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil to make a smooth dressing.
Place each piece of chicken on a plate and drizzle with dressing.
Toss the greens with the remaining dressing; serve with the chicken.
