At long last, and after getting extremely creative with pantry items and settling into a nasty habit of ordering take-out, I am officially back on the recipe band wagon.
Here's what we're eating this week:
Monday: Cheesy Chicken Pot Pie;
Tuesday: Leftovers;
Wednesday: BBQ beef pizzas w/ spinach salad;
Thursday: Chicken Cordon Bleu Burgers (recipe below) w/ fries;
Friday: Leftovers.
Chicken Cordon Bleu Burgers
?This is a kid-friendly version of the original with all the taste and very little effort. Chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese are cooked until melty and served on toasted onion buns with a creamy honey mustard sauce. No one could possibly resist this sandwich, especially a Mom with only one pan to clean."
INGREDIENTS
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
- 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - pounded flat
- 3/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 slices deli ham
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 onion buns
DIRECTIONS
This recipe's Ingredients were scaled to yield serving for 4. The directions below still refer to the original recipe yield of 12 servings.
- Preheat the oven's broiler, and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Whisk together sour cream, yellow mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
- Cut each chicken breast into 2 equal pieces. Sprinkle both sides of chicken breasts with onion powder. Place a large skillet over medium-high heat; coat with non-stick cooking spray. Cook chicken breasts until browned on bottom. Turn chicken, and top with a slice of ham and a slice of cheese. Continue to cook until the chicken is cooked though and the cheese is melted.
- Place rolls, cut side up, under broiler. Toast until lightly browned.
- Top each chicken cordon bleu burger with a tablespoon of honey-mustard sauce, and serve on toasted onion rolls.
