I tried a new recipe last night that was surprisingly easy to make. It's called Chicken Cordon Bleu, and it's a classic dish that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.

The chicken is pounded thin and then rolled up with ham and cheese. It's then baked in the oven until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly. The result is a delicious and elegant dish that's sure to impress your guests.

Step-by-step

    • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 7x11 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
    • Pound chicken breasts to 1/4 inch thickness.
    • Sprinkle each piece of chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Place 1 cheese slice and 1 ham slice on top of each breast. Roll up each breast, and secure with a toothpick. Place in baking dish, and sprinkle chicken evenly with bread crumbs.
    • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink. Remove from oven, and place 1/2 cheese slice on top of each breast. Return to oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese has melted. Remove toothpicks, and serve immediately.
