Cordon Bleu… Easy substitute for your usual fried chicken. Great for daily baon or as simple potluck dish. One of our go-tos so we make sure we stock up on chicken fillet in the fridge. 😋🫶🏻
INGREDIENTS:
1 kilo chicken fillet, flattened
Salt and pepper
1 pack/can meatloaf or ham, cut lengthwise
1 pack cheese, cut lengthwise
Parsley or herbs (optional)
Toothpicks or twine to secure
COATING: 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 eggs, 1 cup breadcrumbs
GRAVY: Butter, Flour, Water, Beef cube, Soy sauce, Ground pepper
1. Flatten & Season: Cover chicken breast with plastic wrap, pound thin with a mallet, and season all over with salt and pepper.
2. Fill & Roll: Layer ham, cheese and herbs over the chicken, roll it up tightly, and secure with toothpicks.
3. Bread: Dip the roll in beaten egg and roll in breadcrumbs, repeating once for a double coat.
4. Fry: Deep fry in hot oil over medium heat for 12–15 minutes (or 8 minutes per side if shallow frying) until fully cooked. Let rest, remove toothpicks, and slice.
5. Make Gravy Sauce: Melt butter in a pan. Stir in flour and beef cube until cooked. Add in water and soy sauce then stir until thick and smooth.
