Individual Stuffed Chicken Cordon Bleu Meatloaf Bacon Wrapped Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place chicken in the freezer until slightly frozen, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned and crisp, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels and cut in half when cool.
• Add mushrooms and garlic to the bacon fat and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes.
• Mix 1/2 of the ale with 1 tablespoon cornstarch in a small bowl. Add to the mushroom mixture; cook and stir until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Combine milk and butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook until butter melts and mixture is warm. Mix remaining beer with remaining cornstarch in a small bowl; add to the milk mixture along with chicken bouillon. Cook and stir until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and combine with mushroom mixture.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a casserole dish with parchment paper.
• Place eggs in a pie plate and mix with a fork until beaten. Place bread crumbs in a separate pie plate.
• Remove chicken from the freezer. Cut a small pocket into each breast; do not cut in half or cheese will melt out during baking. Divide bacon and Swiss cheese evenly and stuff in chicken breasts. Immediately dip in beaten egg mixture, then dredge in bread crumbs. Place in the prepared casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Just before the chicken is ready, warm the cream sauce on the stove.
• Plate chicken and ladle warm sauce over each portion.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 7x11-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Place chicken on a cutting board. Holding a sharp knife horizontal to the board, cut a 3-inch deep pocket lengthwise in the thick side of each breast. Place a slice of Swiss cheese and two slices of prosciutto in the pocket of each chicken breast. Place in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle chicken evenly with breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Place 1/2 tablespoon of butter on top of each chicken breast.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and 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).
• While chicken bakes, prepare sauce by mixing soup, sour cream, and lemon juice together in a pot. Heat over medium heat until sauce thins a bit. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to thin sauce to desired consistency (should be slightly runny to pour over chicken).
• Top chicken with sauce and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, and onion. Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Pat the meat mixture out onto a piece of waxed paper, and flatten to 1/2 inch thick. Lay slices of ham onto the flattened meat, and top with slices of cheese. Pick up the edge of the waxed paper to roll the flattened meat up into a log. Remove waxed paper, seal the ends and seam, and place the loaf into a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
• Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the loaf is no longer pink inside.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lay the chicken between 2 pieces of plastic wrap.
• Using the flat side of a meat mallet, gently pound the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness.
• Take care not to pound too hard because the meat may tear or create holes.
• Lay 2 slices of cheese on each breast, followed by 2 slices of ham, and 2 more of cheese; leaving a 1/2-inch margin on all sides to help seal the roll.
• Tuck in the sides of the breast and roll up tight like a jellyroll.
• Squeeze the log gently to seal.
• Season the flour with salt and pepper; spread out on waxed paper or in a flat dish.
• Mix the breadcrumbs with thyme, kosher salt, pepper, and oil.
• The oil will help the crust brown.
• Beat together the eggs and water, the mixture should be fluid.
• Lightly dust the chicken with flour, then dip in the egg mixture.
• Gently coat in the bread crumbs.
• Carefully transfer the roulades to a baking pan and bake for 20 minutes until browned and cooked through.
• Cut into pinwheels before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken bullion cubes, crushed up, the bread crumbs, (or I used 6 pieces of toast, crushed into crumbs) cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Cut boneless, skinless chicken breasts in half long ways leaving one side intact. Insert one slice of the sliced pre-cooked ham and one slice of Swiss cheese into center of each chicken breast.
• Beat the egg in a mixing bowl and coat each chicken breast. Then coat each one in the bread crumb mixture. Wrap two pieces of bacon around each chicken breast, not overlapping.
• Wrap each piece of chicken individually in a piece of aluminum foil loosely so that it can be opened on the top. Place all three in a 13 x 9 inches baking dish. Cook for 1 hour, 15 minutes. It may take less time (again, this was the first time doing this). At that point, turn oven to broil at 400 degrees. Open the tops of each of the chicken pieces and cook for 2-3 minutes to finish cooking the bacon.
