I enjoy Chicken Cordon Bleu and always looking for different variations to try. This one has a cornflake crust & uses milk instead of egg. You can also substitute the sour cream &/or part of the soup with yogurt to cut abit more of the fat/salt.
Ingredients:
2 lbs chicken breasts, skinless & boneless
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces deli ham, sliced thin
4 -6 ounces mozzarella cheese
2/3 cup low-fat milk
1 cup corn flakes, crushed
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 (10 ounce) cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup light sour cream (or yogurt)
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F Flatten chicken to 1/4 thickness & sprinkle with pepper.
2. Place a slice of ham & 1-2 slices of cheese down the center of each piece. Roll up & tuck in ends; secure with toothpicks.
3. In a shallow dish, pour in milk.
4. In another dish, combine the crushed cornflakes, paprika, garlic powder & salt.
5. Dip chicken in milk, then roll in crumbs. Place in a 13x9 greased baking dish.
6. Bake uncovered for 25-30 min or until juices run clear.
7. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk the soup, sour cream/yogurt & lemon juice until blended; heat through.
8. Discard toothpicks from chicken & serve with sauce.
