A new way to do chicken cordon bleu. This easy breaded chicken dinner is stuffed with fresh deli ham and melted pepper jack cheese. Fancy, delicious, yet simple.
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare a baking sheet and lightly coat with nonstick spray. Place chicken on baking sheet.
Using a sharp knife, cut 5 slits into the chicken, about 3/4 inches apart. Make sure to not cut all the way through the chicken.
Cut pepper jack cheese into 4 squares. Slice ham into halves. Roll ham and cheese slices lengthwise. Place ham and cheese slices into slits of chicken.
Sprinkle garlic powder, Kosher salt, ground pepper and breadcrumbs evenly over chicken.
Place into oven and bake at 350ºF for 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
Serve immediately.
Notes
*For more amazing flavor, let chicken marinate overnight in the fridge. Then, warm it up again in the microwave.
