EASY OVEN-BAKED CHICKEN CORDON BLEU
This version is easy since it uses the chicken cutlets which are much thinner than the whole breast - thus no pounding - and the ingredients are layered instead of rolled. It all came together accidentally tonight when I realized the cutlets were too small to roll. My family loved it...I hope you will too!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- Place 3 cutlets side by side in the prepared pan and season with salt and pepper. Top with overlapping ham slices, starting 1/4 inch away from the edges of the cutlets. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese over ham. Lay remaining 3 cutlets side by side on top, covering all the Cheddar cheese. Sprinkle flour on top, spreading with hands to cover.
- Combine beaten egg and milk in a bowl; pour over the chicken.
- Combine bread crumbs with oregano in a bowl; sprinkle over the top and sides to cover all surfaces of chicken. Spoon any excess egg mixture from the bottom of the pan over the chicken. Drizzle melted butter on top; pour chicken broth around the edges. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cutlets are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Turn oven to broil and cook until top is crispy and golden brown, about 5 minutes more.

CHICKEN CORDON BLEU ROLL-UPS
A clever technique and a few lightened-up touches let you indulge in all the flavor of Chicken Cordon Bleu, without all the fuss or the fat. It all starts with skipping the stuffed chicken breasts. Instead, pound your chicken breasts flat and layer with Swiss cheese, ham and spinach (for an extra boost of veggies). Then, roll them up, so the flavors can melt together. Coating the outside of your chicken roll-ups with a toasty, herby panko crust and baking them, instead of frying, keeps calories down without sacrificing crispy texture. So, you end up with crunchy-on-the-outside and melty-on-the-inside chicken roll-ups packed with classic flavor and fewer than 400 calories per serving!

Steps:
- Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, tossing to coat evenly.
- On a cutting board, place a chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound until about ½ inch (1 cm) thick with a meat mallet, rolling pin, or heavy pan.
- Remove the plastic wrap and place 2 slices of Swiss cheese, then 2 slices of ham, then another layer of Swiss cheese, and another layer of ham. Evenly roll the chicken and place onto a new sheet of plastic wrap.
- Wrap the chicken in the plastic wrap tightly and use the excess plastic on the sides to twist, firming up the roll of chicken cordon bleu as you work. Tie the excess plastic. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, then chill the rolls in the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat a tall-sided pan with 2 inches (5 cm) of oil to 325°F (170°C).
- After the rolls are set, prepare 2 separate large, wide dishes with the flour, beaten egg, and bread crumbs. Dredge the chicken first in the flour, then the egg, and then bread crumbs.
- Place the breaded chicken cordon bleu in the oil and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until the outside is an even golden brown. If a good color is achieved and the chicken's center is still not 165°F (75°C), place the chicken cordon bleu on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and finish the chicken in the oven at 325°F (170°C) until that temperature is reached.
- Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In a 1 ½-quart saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and cook the garlic until soft. Add the flour and whisk for 1 minute.
- Add the milk and whisk until fully combined with the roux and no lumps remain. Continue whisking until the mixture comes to a simmer and has thickened.
- Add the mustard, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper and whisk to combine. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Slice the chicken and serve drizzled with Dijon sauce.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Flatten chicken with meat mallet.
- Place once slice ham, one slice Swiss cheese, and three asparagus spears in middle of each piece of chicken. Roll up and secure with a toothpick. (I soak my toothpicks in water to prevent them burning in the oven).
- Beat egg and evaporated milk together. Dip chicken in egg mixture and then roll in bread crumbs. Salt and pepper chicken to taste.
- Arrange in a heavily buttered dish. Bake covered in a 350 degree F oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- To make sauce, first remove toothpicks and transfer cooked chicken to warm serving platter. Deglaze the baking dish with white wine, making sure to scrape out all browned bits from baking dish.
- Pour deglazing liquid from baking dish into a small stove top saucepan on low heat. Add chicken stock (and butter, if you wish) to deglazing liquid and simmer for 30 minutes.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your dish will taste. Look for fresh, organic, and locally sourced ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is a delicate protein, so it's important to cook it carefully. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to the proper temperature: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before slicing it: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the chicken cordon bleu cannelloni rolls with your favorite dipping sauce: Marinara sauce, Alfredo sauce, or ranch dressing are all good options.
Conclusion:
Chicken cordon bleu cannelloni rolls are a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With a crispy outer shell, tender and juicy chicken, and a creamy, flavorful filling, these rolls are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
