To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices of ham
- 4 slices of Swiss cheese
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 cup of breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Cut a pocket into each chicken breast, being careful not to cut all the way through. Stuff each pocket with a slice of ham and a slice of Swiss cheese. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Next, set up a breading station. Place the flour in a shallow dish, the beaten eggs in another shallow dish, and the breadcrumbs in a third shallow dish. Dip each chicken breast in the flour, then the egg, and finally the breadcrumbs, making sure to coat each piece evenly.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, make the garlic cream sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese and stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
To serve, spoon the garlic cream sauce over the stuffed chicken cordon bleu. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a fancy dinner party. The appearance of the dish is elegant and appetizing, with the golden brown chicken and creamy garlic sauce. The taste is rich and flavorful, with the combination of chicken, ham, cheese, and garlic cream sauce.
