Tied And Fried Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipes

CRISPY, CREAMY CHICKEN CORDON BLEU RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, tossing to coat evenly.
• On a cutting board, place a chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound until about ½ inch (1 cm) thick with a meat mallet, rolling pin, or heavy pan.
• Remove the plastic wrap and place 2 slices of Swiss cheese, then 2 slices of ham, then another layer of Swiss cheese, and another layer of ham. Evenly roll the chicken and place onto a new sheet of plastic wrap.
• Wrap the chicken in the plastic wrap tightly and use the excess plastic on the sides to twist, firming up the roll of chicken cordon bleu as you work. Tie the excess plastic. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, then chill the rolls in the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat a tall-sided pan with 2 inches (5 cm) of oil to 325°F (170°C).
• After the rolls are set, prepare 2 separate large, wide dishes with the flour, beaten egg, and bread crumbs. Dredge the chicken first in the flour, then the egg, and then bread crumbs.
• Place the breaded chicken cordon bleu in the oil and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until the outside is an even golden brown. If a good color is achieved and the chicken's center is still not 165°F (75°C), place the chicken cordon bleu on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and finish the chicken in the oven at 325°F (170°C) until that temperature is reached.
• Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a 1 ½-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook the garlic until soft. Add the flour and whisk for 1 minute.
• Add the milk and whisk until fully combined with the roux and no lumps remain. Continue whisking until the mixture comes to a simmer and has thickened.
• Add the mustard, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper and whisk to combine. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Slice the chicken and serve drizzled with Dijon sauce.
• Enjoy!

CHICKEN CORDON BLEU - FRIED

Steps:

• Pat dry the chicken breasts. Using a sharp knife, cut the chicken breasts in half horizontally nearly all the way through. Open each breast wide. Place a piece of parchment paper on top of a cutting board, place each opened chicken breast on top of the paper, then cover the breast with another sheet of parchment paper and flatten the chicken breast with a meat mallet or rolling pin to a thickness of 1 cm / 1/2 inch. Remove the paper. Spread dijon mustard over each breast and season with salt and pepper.
• Place a slice of ham and two slices of cheese onto each chicken breast. Evenly and tightly roll the chicken. Place on plastic wrap. Wrap the chicken roulade in the plastic wrap tightly and use the excess plastic on the sides to twist. Tie the excess plastic. Repeat with the remaining chicken breast. Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes to chill.
• Pour the vegetable oil into a heavy-bottomed pot. Make sure it covers about 5 cm / 2 inches of the pot. Place over medium heat and heat to 170°C / 325°F. Prepare three plates. Add flour, pinch of salt and pepper to one plate. Beat the eggs and heavy cream in a second plate and combine breadcrumbs, sesame seeds, paprika, turmeric and chia seeds (optionally) in a third plate. Dredge the chicken first in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and then in the breadcrumbs mixture. Make sure you get each layer of coating evenly. Transfer to a plate.
• Using a skimmer, gently place each chicken cordon bleu into hot oil (170°C / 325°F). Fry for about 7 - 8 minutes on each side or until the exterior is nice, golden brown and crunchy. Check the interior of the chicken breast. If the center of the meat is not 68°C / 160°F place the Chicken Cordon Bleu on a baking sheet and cook until the temperature is reached, for about 5 - 10 minutes at 175°C / 350°F. If the temperature was already reached when frying, then place the chicken cordon bleu on a plate covered with kitchen towels to drain the excess fat.
• Serve Chicken Cordon Bleu as soon as possible with your favorite side dish. We recommend mashed potatoes, parsnip puree with pear, braised carrots or kale salad.
