Chicken Cordon Bleu (Stove top)

Ingredients

 

6 fresh boneless, skinless chicken breasts
6 ounces Swiss cheese, sliced
6 ounces ham, sliced
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup white wine
1 Chicken Bouillon Cubes
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup whipping cream

 


 

Directions

Pound chicken breasts until slightly flattened. Divide Swiss cheese and sliced ham among the chicken breasts leaving a ½-inch border around the edge. Fold the chicken breasts in half and secure with toothpicks.

In a mixing bowl combine flour and paprika; dust the stuffed chicken breasts.

Heat butter in a large heavy skillet and cook the chicken until browned on all sides. Add white wine and chicken bouillon cube. When bouillon cube has dissolved, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer 30 minutes. Remove the toothpicks and transfer the chicken to a warm platter. Blend cornstarch with cream and whisk slowly into the skillet. Cook, stirring until thick, and pour over the chicken.
