Chicken Cordon Bleu (Quickie Version)


Ingredients

1/2 kilo chicken breast

4pcs Calamansi / 1 whole lemon

salt and pepper to taste

4 slices cheddar cheese

4 slices sweet ham

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs, slightly beaten

1/2 cup bread crumbs

1/4 cup butter

  • Slice chicken breast into 4 equal sizes - make sure its slightly thin (so when you fry it, it will not be raw on the inside). Make a pocket in the chicken breast for the filling. (note the size of the cheese and ham should be slightly smaller than the chicken breast slices since it will be filled inside)
  • Season chicken breast with the lemon, little salt and pepper.
  • Lay a slice of ham, cheese inside the chicken breast. Roll. Seal the edges firmly. (you can use a toothpick to lock it in)
  • Dredge it in flour first, followed by rolling it on beaten egg then rolling in bread crumbs.
  • Fry in butter for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side until the inside part of the chicken is cooked and cheese begins to melt
  • Let it stay on paper towels to absorb excess oils. Then serve hot!
