Saucy Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 4 slices ham
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 sprigs fresh parsley, for garnish
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Flatten chicken breasts without breaking through meat. Roll each ham slice in a cheese slice, then roll up in chicken breasts. In a shallow dish or bowl season flour with salt, pepper and paprika. In a separate dish or bowl beat together eggs and milk. Dip chicken rolls in seasoned flour, then egg mixture, then bread crumbs. Heat oil in a large skillet and fry chicken in hot oil until golden brown. Set aside.
  3. To Make Sauce: In a large bowl combine the soup, mushrooms, garlic powder, curry powder, wine and sour cream. Mix all together. Place browned chicken in a 9×13 inch baking dish. Pour sauce mixture over chicken and bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley sprigs.
