STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS (CORDON BLEU)
This versatile recipe will work with any filling, just make about 1 1/2 cups of it (3 tbsp per breast). Also, if you don't have a meat mallet you can use a heavy glass bottle (just don't miss!).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Place a chicken breast between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound flat and thin without breaking through the meat (Ideally this would make a 1/8 inch thick rectangle).
- Remove plastic wrap, season with salt and pepper, repeat with remaining breasts.
- Mix diced ham and shredded cheese together in a bowl, spoon 2-3 tbsp of mixture onto each flattened breast.
- Fold in the bottom and sides and roll up (this is often difficult to do depending on how the breast flattens out, so I just fold them over and stick lots of tooth picks in them to keep them closed).
- Combine bread crumbs and parmesan cheese, brush each roll with olive oil and roll in crumb mixture to coat.
- Place rolls, seam side down, in a shallow baking dish and bake uncovered for 25 minutes (or until chicken is thoroughly cooked).
- Remove toothpicks before serving!
