Fried Chicken Cordon Bleu

Traditionally chicken cordon bleu is served wrapped in fillo but like to ad a little southern to it by frying it!

4-6 thin cut boneless chicken breasts
Shredded Havarti Cheese or Gruyere
Shredded Ham
Italian Bread Crumbs
one egg per chicken- mix with milk to make an egg wash
Cajun Seasoning
cooking oil

1-Pound the breasts as flat as possible without putting holes in them
2-Put shredded ham and cheese in the middle of the breast
3-"seal" the breasts together as much as possible using toothpicks or cooking string
4-Season with cajun seasoning
5-Dip breast in egg, coat with breadcrumbs (I use a gallon size ziplock) then dip again in egg and coat a second time
6- Once chickens are all double breaded fry in cooking oil. Flip when bottom looks brown. Cook on other side until the whole thing is evenly brown.
7-Place on paper towels to drain b4 serving

We served it with pasta and a salad- BIG HIT!

Also try stuffing with spinach & provelone for a veggie option

Creamy Chicken Pot Pie (No peas or Carrots 😳)

Creamy Chicken Pot Pie *Makes 1-3 Pies* I love a good chicken pot pie. Traditionally they aren’t particularly creamy and they usually involve a bag of frozen peas & carrot mix. However, Julie doesn’t eat either so I subbed the two veggies she does eat - green beans and corn. You can use fresh or frozen veggies. I used the the steamer bags that came with garlic butter in the bag and I used fresh local corn cobs, boiled with kernels cut. They are crisp and sweet! I added cream and cream cheese to the filling to make it extra savory for my picky eaters! I usually make & bake 1 pie, and freeze the rest of the filling for another day in a freezer bag Ingredients: (1) Rotisserie chicken picked and chopped. Place in large bowl. (1) bag green bean steamer bag w seasoning - cooked and chopped (1) bag little potatoes steamer bag w seasoning cooked and chopped (1) Vidalia onion chopped (1) yellow bell pepper chopped (2) stalks celery chopped (2) cloves garlic chopped (1) Handful fresh pou...
