CHICKEN CORDON BLEU WITH ROASTED GARLIC AND MUSHROOM SAUCE
This delicious version sounds like a lot of steps, but it actually comes together quite quickly. I like to serve with homemade rice pilaf and grilled veggies. You can use any kind of thinly sliced ham for this recipe, I've also used bacon and pancetta. Try experimenting with the cheese... I've found that Pepper Jack, Cheddar, Swiss, Blue, and Gorgonzola all make good variations.
