Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place chicken breasts between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound them to about 1/2 inch thickness.
Assemble the Cordon Bleu
Lay a slice of ham and a slice of Swiss cheese on each chicken breast. Fold the edges of the chicken over the filling and secure with toothpicks.
Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken rolls and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Bake
Transfer the browned chicken rolls to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until cooked through and cheese is melted.
Serve
Remove toothpicks and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with your choice of sides.
