Cordon Bleu


  1. Prepare the Chicken:
    Cut the chicken breast into medium-large pieces. Flatten each piece using a meat mallet or a rolling pin to make it thin and even.

  2. Season the Chicken:
    Lay each flattened chicken piece on a surface and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub the spices well into the chicken.

  3. Assemble the Filling:
    Place a slice of mozzarella cheese on each chicken piece, followed by turkey slices, and then another layer of cheddar cheese.

  4. Roll the Chicken:
    Roll each chicken piece tightly, securing the edges to prevent the cheese from leaking out during cooking. Press firmly to keep the roll intact.

  5. Chill the Rolls:
    Place the chicken rolls in the refrigerator for an hour to firm up and hold their shape.

  6. Prepare the Coating:
    In one bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the paprika, salt, and garlic powder. In another bowl, mix the flour with a pinch of salt, paprika, and garlic powder.

  7. Coat the Rolls:
    Dip each chicken roll in the egg mixture, then coat it in the flour mixture. Dip it back into the egg mixture, and finally coat it with breadcrumbs.

  8. Fry the Rolls:
    Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the chicken rolls, turning them to ensure all sides are golden brown and the chicken is cooked through.

  9. Serve:
    Place the cooked chicken rolls on a serving plate. Your delicious Cordon Bleu is now ready to enjoy!

Bon appétit!
