Chef Tim’s Chicken Cordon Bleu breading
INSTRUCTIONS
- Combine the chicken, ham and egg in a large bowl until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.
- Gradually add bread crumbs until the mixture loses its stickiness and can be easily formed into balls.
- Form the chicken mixture around the cheese cubes, forming 2 inch balls. Place on a plate.
- Heat 1 1/2 inches of oil in a deep skillet to 350 degrees. Fry the breaded balls until the outsides are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels, and place in baking dish.
- Bake in preheated oven until cooked through and cheese is soft, about 20 minutes. Cool briefly before serving.
- You can serve this with a variety of sauces, however I like to use a little Dijon Mustard to dip them in.
