This is true Chicken Cordon Bleu for me. Bite sized pieces make it a favorite for children. You can make the casserole a day or two ahead of time, and just pop it in the oven for a quick meal. For a lighter twist, you could skip the breading on the chicken and just brown in a pan. I can guarrantee that you won't have any leftovers with this dish. Ingredients:
1 egg |
1/2 cup milk |
2 lbs chicken breasts, cubed |
1 cup plain breadcrumbs |
1 cup oil (for frying) |
8 ounces swiss cheese, cubed |
8 ounces cubed ham |
12 ounces alfredo sauce (your favorite) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Beat egg and 1/2 cup milk together until combined. Stir in the chicken chunks to coat, then drain, and coat with bread crumbs. Heat oil in a large skillet to 375°F (190°C). Fry breaded chicken cubes in hot oil until golden brown on all sides, then remove, and drain on paper towels.
3. Place chicken && ham cubes in glass baking dish. Pour alfredo sauce over chicken && ham, top with Swiss cheese.
4. Bake in preheated oven until golden brown and bubbly, about 30 minutes.
