I made chicken again.  My kids like chicken.  They asked me to make Chicken Cordon Bleu.  It sounds hard because most French dishes are hard to pronounce let alone make.  But when it comes down to it, I love my kids and I want to make them happy 'cuz that makes me happy.  This is how I made it...so easy and delicious. 


Chicken Cordon Bleu

6 chicken breasts with the fat removed, pounded flat
6 slices Swiss cheese
6 slices ham (Black Forest is my favorite)
2 eggs, beaten
2 cups bread crumbs (I used Panko)
2 cans sweetened condensed milk
3 cups milk

Pound chicken breasts until flat.  Salt and pepper each chicken breast.  Place a slice of ham and a slice of cheese on the flattened chicken breast.  Roll chicken breast starting with wide side.  Secure with two toothpicks.  Dip in beaten egg and then in bread crumbs.  Place in greased pan.  Continue with all chicken, cheese and ham.

Combine soup and milk and stir until smooth.  Pour over chicken.  Bake at 350 for 1 hour; or until chicken is no longer pink.

I served this with fresh asparagus, ranch new potatoes and a spinach salad.  Delicious!
